Abstract
A method is provided that includes receiving reflections of a plurality of radar signals from an environment by a radar system. The method also includes determining, by a radar processing system, that two received radar reflections correspond to an object in the environment based on a location of the object, where at least one of the two received radar reflections had a reflection in the environment off of a secondary reflecting object. The method further includes revising a tracking for the object.
