Abstract
A calibration system for a radar sensor and a method of using the system are disclosed. The method may comprise (a) receiving, from a first sensor in a vehicle, a plurality of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) parameters, wherein the plurality of GNSS parameters define a unique terrestrial position of the first sensor; (b) receiving, from a radar sensor in the vehicle, a plurality of radar parameters, wherein the plurality of radar parameters define a position of a calibration target relative to the radar sensor; (c) repeating the receiving of (a) and (b) at additional unique terrestrial positions of the first sensor; (d) using the plurality of GNSS parameters received in (a) and (c) and the plurality of radar parameters received in (b) and (c), determining corresponding positions of the calibration target; and (e) using the corresponding positions of the calibration target, determining radar calibration parameters.
