Abstract
A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) system performs a method including generating a frequency domain waveform based on a baseband electrical signal in a time domain, wherein the frequency domain waveform includes a spectrum of frequencies and determining a likelihood metric for the spectrum of frequencies of the frequency domain waveform. The method further includes in response to one or more parameters associated with the frequency domain waveform satisfying a condition, modifying the likelihood metric for the spectrum of frequencies based on the one or more parameters associated with the frequency domain waveform to generate a modified likelihood metric for the spectrum of frequencies, selecting a peak frequency from the frequency domain waveform corresponding to a frequency with the highest value for the modified likelihood metric, and determining one or more properties of a target based at least in part on the selected peak frequency.
