Abstract

This document describes target curvature estimation considering vehicle dynamics constraints. Some vehicle dynamics models use several kinematic states to predict the paths of targets identified by an object-tracking system. Rather than rely on predetermined industry measurements as the kinematic inputs to a model, an example system instead estimates some of these states using near real-time data output from a tracking filter. This can include estimating position and velocity states, as well as curvature and centripetal acceleration states. The example system is particularly suited at accurately predicting the curvature and centripetal acceleration states, which greatly improves the accuracy of the object-tracking system, and further improves safety in avoiding a target collision.
