Multipath classification in radar detections

Abstract

To provide a method for classifying tracks in a scene acquired by a radar unit.SOLUTION: The method comprises: acquiring radar detections of a scene, using a radar unit (100); feeding a part of the radar detections into a tracker module (206) for producing track-specific feature data indicating a specific track in the scene; feeding a part of the radar detections into a scene model (208) including information about scene-specific features aggregated over time, and information indicating areas in the scene with expected ghost target detections and areas with expected real target detections, in which a subset of the scene-specific features is determined from the radar detections; and classifying the specific track as belonging to a real target or to a ghost target by relating the specific track to a position in the scene model.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
