    Abstract: A detection system to detect an object and a method of performing detection of an object are described. The system includes a radar system to transmit radiation and receive resulting reflections, the object being a distributed radar target reflecting multi-point reflections. The system also includes an auxiliary sensor to estimate one or more parameters of the object, and a processor to estimate a probability density function based on estimates of the one or more parameters of the object and the multi-point reflections and to detect the object based on the probability density function.

    Abstract: A method of creating a shadow-reduced image from a captured image. An image of a scene exterior of a vehicle is captured by a vehicle-based image capture device. A first object profile of an object in the captured image is identified by a processor. A second object profile of the object is detected using a non-vision object detection device. Shadows in the captured image are removed by the processor as a function of the first object profile and the second object profile. A shadow reduced image is utilized in a vehicle-based application.

    Abstract: An automotive radar system includes a radar camera that captures a sequence of frames of radar images of a field of view of the radar. A boundary detector receives the radar data from the radar camera and detects object boundary data in the radar data. An image processor receives the radar data and the object boundary data and performs image analysis including image deblurring and generating response control signals based at least in part on the radar data and the object boundary data. Response equipment implements one or more response actions based on the response control signals. Object boundary detection includes performing pixel-level Doppler analysis to associate pixel velocities to pixels of the radar data and identifying discontinuities in the pixel velocities. Response equipment may include, for example, one or more of a navigation display, collision avoidance warning, automatic cruise control, automatic braking, and automatic steering.

    Abstract: A target detection system and a method of performing radar target detection are described. The system includes a radar system to obtain radar echoes from a target with multiple point reflectors. The system also includes a processor to obtain a cluster of multi-dimensional point spread function from the radar echoes, each multi-dimensional point spread function being associated with a reflection from one of the multiple point reflectors, and also to perform object detection based on three or more dimensions of each of the multi-dimensional point spread functions of the cluster.
