Evaluation of a Novel Radar Based Scanning Method

Figure 13

(a) This picture shows the simulated scene with six objects. Spheres are suitable as a point target. The scanner is equipped with 9 radar sensors and panning over all six objects from the left to the right. (b) Representation of the measurement points which are calculated via minimum mean square method. As it can be seen in the picture above, wrong position estimation of the spheres is the consequence of not detecting the same object with all sensors. (c) The filter criterion (see (11)) lowers the occurrence of wrong position estimations due to the NPTC. The red triangle in both diagrams represents the scanning unit.
