Abstract
A message can be received from a first object. The message can include information about a position of the first object. An electromagnetic energy can be caused to be transmitted in a direction of the first object at a time in which the first object is in motion. A reflection of the electromagnetic energy can be received from the direction of the first object. A first possible position of a second object can be determined based on the reflection of the electromagnetic energy having traveled entirely along a path defined by a line formed by the first object and the vehicle. A second possible position of the second object can be determined based on the reflection of the electromagnetic energy having traveled along a path outside of the line. An actual position of the second object being the second possible position of the second object can be determined.
