Single-Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD)-based 'Light Detection And Ranging' (LiDAR) systems often use the first photon measurement principle to acquire ranging information. While those systems provide accurate distance measurements, they can easily saturate in high background scenarios. Recent improvements in SPAD quenching circuit technology open up the opportunity for SPAD LiDAR systems to detect m...Show More

Expected Value and Variance of the Indirect Time-of-Flight Measurement With Dead Time Afflicted Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes

Indirect time-of-flight (TOF) measurement with single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) is performed by counting incident photons in several time windows. Since SPADs exhibit dead time not all incident photons can be counted within a given time window. This affects the expected values and, hence, the variance of the distance measurement. For photon detection rates close to the inverse of the dead ti...Show More
