Target recognition based on the curve recognition in a distance chirp map

摘要

One system and method for performing target detection involves transmitting frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) pulses as chirps from a radar system. The method also includes receiving reflections resulting from the chirps and processing the reflections to obtain a range chirp map for each beam associated with the transmission. The curve recognition is performed on the range chirp map for each beam, and one or more targets are detected based on the curve recognition.
