  • Publication number: 20250138149
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to a radar sensor system that determines if a point detected by the radar corresponds to a true target and outputs an indication upon which control of an autonomous vehicle may be based. The radar can be used to determine if the point corresponds to a false target, thereby mitigating false positives. The radar can be used to determine if an object coincides with a location of the false target, thereby mitigating false negatives. The radar employs an algorithm that includes applying different windows to a return signal on a beamforming stage and comparing the resulting windowed signals.
