About the livox data pre-process #2

Hi,recently i get a livox sensor, due to their unique Non-repetitive Scanning Technology, the adjacent frame differs a lot, it's hard to do frame-frame match work. do you have any papers relative to this project, or do you have any introductions to their unique Non-repetitive Scanning Technology. Thanks a lot

Livox LiDARs feature a unique non-repetitive scanning, where the scanning trajectory never repeats itself. This feature makes the frame-to-frame feature tracking and matching rather challenging and unreliable. In my project, I minimize the distance of point-line and point plane to solve the pose of the new scan data. In the development of this project, we mainly refer to [1] Zhang, Ji, and Sanjiv Singh.
