Target state estimation using RCS characteristics for 26GHz short-range vehicular radar

Abstract

In the traffic accidents in intersection at night, the probability of dying is 2.9 times higher than at daytime. Therefore, the wide area monitoring using by all-weather radar to the reduction of traffic accidents is essential regardless of day or night. In this paper, we study on the state estimation of a moving radar target in intersection environment by 26GHz automotive radar.
