Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed towards obstacle position and extent measurement. In accordance with one aspect, obstacle detection includes creating one or more interferometric measurements to generate a flow of response position locations using a flow of range/Doppler detections by fitting a parametric expression; and deriving one or more scatterer positions and obstacle position and extent measurements from the flow of response position locations.
Claims22
A method for obstacle detection, the method comprising:
- creating one or more interferometric measurements to generate a flow of response position locations using a flow of range/Doppler detections by fitting a parametric expression;
- and
- deriving one or more scatterer positions and obstacle position and extent measurements from the flow of response position locations.
An apparatus for obstacle detection, the apparatus comprising:
- an interferometric processor to create one or more interferometric measurements to generate a flow of response position locations using a flow of range/Doppler detections by fitting a parametric expression;
- and
- a scatterer processor, coupled to the interferometric processor, to derive one or more scatterer positions and obstacle position and extent measurements from the flow of response position locations.
