Abstract
A method and an apparatus for improving the resolution of a LiDAR. The LiDAR includes a plurality of actual channels, each of which corresponds to one emitter unit at an emitting end and one detector unit at a detecting end. The method includes determining at least one interpolation channel to be generated; separately determining, for each interpolation channel to be generated, one or more associated channels among the plurality of actual channels; determining weights of the one or more associated channels with respect to the interpolation channel; and generating a waveform of the interpolation channel based on waveform information of the one or more associated channels and the weights thereof, and determining point cloud data of the LiDAR based on the waveform information of each actual channel and each interpolation channel. The solution of this disclosure can avoid increasing the hardware load thereon.
