Abstract
Lidar systems may use highly sensitive GmAPD detectors to track obstacles in the environment of an autonomous vehicle. Data sensed by a lidar GmAPD detector can be pre-conditioned to facilitate differentiating low intensity signals from background noise. By sampling raw avalanche counts accumulated by the detector as Bernoulli trials, binomial statistics can be leveraged to transform raw data to a probability distribution, and then to a normalized data set suitable for signal processing.
