Verification of a Lane Detection Method with Automotive Radar based on a New Type of Road Marking

摘要

Lane Change Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping System, and Automated Driving all require the sensors in vehicles to be able to detect the road and lane boundaries reliably and accurately under all circumstances. However, such functions rely currently solely on camera sensors, which in result unavoidably affects the stability of the whole system under certain extreme lighting conditions. Therefore, this paper shows a verification test result of a novel approach in lane boundary detection with an automotive radar and a specific kind of reflectors. A new approach of road course prediction and vehicle localization by utilizing its Range-Doppler characteristics is also presented in this paper.
