Abstract
A polarimetric radar system for object classification and road condition estimation includes a radar transmitter unit for transmitting radar waves of different polarizations, a radar receiving unit for receiving radar waves of different polarizations, a radar signal generating unit for generating and providing the radar waves to be transmitted, a signal processing circuitry for processing the generated and received radar waves, and a signal evaluation unit. The signal evaluation unit receives processed signals from the signal processing circuitry, estimates values for a set of predetermined object parameters on the basis of the received processed signals, and selects an object class from a plurality of predetermined object classes upon detecting a match of the estimated values with one out of a plurality of predetermined sets of object parameters. The signal evaluation unit is configured to provide information that is indicative of the at least one classified object.
