Systems and methods for operating radar systems. The methods comprise, by a processor: receiving point cloud information generated by at least one radar device and a spatial description for an object; generating a plurality of point cloud segments by grouping data points of the point cloud information based on the spatial description; arranging the point cloud segments in a temporal order to define a radar tentative track; performing dealiasing operations using the radar tentative track to generate tracker initialization information; and using the tracker initialization information to generate a track for the object.
