    摘要: A computer-implemented method of perceiving structure in a radar point cloud comprises: generating a discretised image representation of the radar point cloud having (i) an occupancy channel indicating whether or not each pixel of the discretised image representation corresponds to a point in the radar point cloud and (ii) a Doppler channel containing, for each occupied pixel, a Doppler velocity of the corresponding point in the radar point cloud; and inputting the discretised image representation to a machine learning (ML) perception component, which has been trained extract information about structure exhibited in the radar point cloud from the occupancy and Doppler channels.

    摘要: Examples disclosed herein relate to a radar system and method of angular resolution refinement for use in autonomous vehicles. The method includes transmitting a radio frequency (RF) beam to a surrounding environment with a beamsteering radar system and receiving return RF beams from the surrounding environment. The method also includes generating radar data from the return RF beams and detecting objects from the radar data, and determining a direction of arrival of each of object and determining an angular distance between the objects. The method further includes initiating a guard channel detection based at least on the angular distance and determining gain amplitudes of the return RF beams, and determining a null between the objects from the gain amplitudes and resolving the objects as separate objects based at least on the determined null. The method also includes determining a refined direction of arrival of the objects based at least on the resolved objects.

    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to simulating patterns of reflected radar energy off of reference objects using motion data associated with these reference objects. This motion data may identify start times, start locations, end times, and end locations of a limited number reference objects in a set of discrete scenes. Each of these discrete scenes may also have a same time duration. Motion of these specific objects between a start time and an end time of each discrete scene may be interpolated. Once the locations of the objects are interpolated for a given scene, simulations may be performed to estimate the appearance of reflected radar signals that would be received by a radar apparatus. These simulations may identify patterns of reflected radar energy after radar signals have been emitted from the radar apparatus and these patterns may then be provided to train a machine learning apparatus.

    摘要: A method of filtering dynamic objects in radar-based ego-motion estimation includes converting measurement value at current time, measured by radar sensor, into point cloud, classifying the point cloud into points of a first object predicted as static object and points of a second object predicted as dynamic object, based on position value of dynamic object tracked at previous time, classifying the points of the first object into the points of the static object predicted as normal value and the points of the dynamic object predicted as outlier, based on outlier filtering algorithm, classifying the points of the second object into points of a candidate static object and points of a candidate dynamic object, based on velocity model of the static object, and tracking a position value of the dynamic object at current time, based on the points of the dynamic object and the points of the candidate dynamic object.
