Abstract
A simulation method for predicting a false positive for a predefined region outside a desired field of view of a radar sensor. Calculated primary rays having a respective primary energy level represent the radar signal. Reflected rays are calculated based on the primary rays or other reflected rays and based on geometrical data for at least one item within the predefined region. An energy level is determined for each reflected ray based on an estimated reflectivity of the at least one item and based on the primary energy level of the respective primary ray, and a clustering level for the reflected rays is determined based on distances of the respective reflection points. A probability for an occurrence of a false positive is estimated based on the energy level and the clustering level.
