RADAR BASED TRACKING OF SLOW MOVING OBJECTS

摘要

An illustrative example method of classifying a detected object (22) includes detecting an object (22), determining that an estimated velocity of the object (22) is below a preselected threshold velocity requiring classification, determining a time during which the object (22) has been detected, determining a first distance the object (22) moves during the time determining a speed of the object (22) from the first distance and the time, determining a second distance that a centroid of the detected object (22) moves during the time, and classifying the detected object (22) as a slow moving object or a stationary object based on a relationship between the first and second distances and a relationship between the estimated velocity and the speed.
