Abstract
A method is described for determining the position of a vehicle equipped with a radar system that includes at least one radar sensor adapted to receive radar signals emitted from at least one radar emitter of the radar system and reflected the radar sensor. The method comprises: acquiring at least one radar scan comprising a plurality of radar detection points, wherein each radar detection point is evaluated from a radar signal received at the radar sensor and representing a location in the vicinity of the vehicle; determining, from a database, a predefined map, wherein the map comprises at least one element representing a static landmark in the vicinity of the vehicle; matching at least a subset of the plurality of radar detection points of the at least one scan and the at least one element of the map; deter-mining the position of the vehicle based on the matching.
