  • Patent number: 9170324
    Abstract: Statistical movement analysis method that includes defining one or more movement signature types, wherein a movement signature type includes a set of movement parameters and values for the set of movement parameters and receiving data for objects monitored by a radar system at a plurality of times, the data including values acquired for the set of movement parameters. The method also includes discriminating the data for the monitored objects by comparing movement signatures of two or more of the monitored objects for a difference of statistical significance and characterizing the monitored objects based on the movement signatures of the monitored objects. The method also includes identifying one or more of the monitored objects by comparing the received data for a monitored object with the movement signature type to determine if any of the objects monitored by the radar system are moving consistent with the movement signature type.
