Abstract

Techniques for cascade filtering of a set of points of interest (POIs) in a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system is described. The method includes performing a series of cascaded filtering of a set of points of interest (POIs) in a first point cloud and a second point cloud of the LiDAR system. The method also includes calculating at least a first metric over at least the POI and to make a decision with respect to the second point cloud, and extracting at least one of range and velocity information based on the second point cloud.
