Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, and devices for mitigating Lidar cross-talk. Consistent with some embodiments, a method includes detecting a noise signal producing noise in one or more return signals being received by a Lidar unit of an autonomous vehicle (AV) system, and detecting a noise source corresponding to the noise signal. The detecting of the noise source comprises determining a direction of the noise source relative to the AV system and determining a classification of the noise source based on an intensity of the noise signal. The method further includes generating state data to describe the noise source based on the direction of the noise source relative to AV system and the classification of the noise source. The method further includes controlling one or more operations of the AV system based on the state data describing the noise source.
