Abstract
A system comprises a vehicle radar sensor including an antenna, transmitter, receiver, and processor. The processor hosts a scanning control module that sends a control signal to the transmitter, receiver, or both, to generate radar beams; and a signal processing module that receives a reflected signal from the receiver to generate radar data. The system also includes an onboard application module and ground surface database. The application module is operative to access information from the surface database, access position and attitude data, access position and attitude uncertainty data, access radar installation data, and access radar data from the signal processing module; identify ground surface areas to be avoided based on the information from the surface database, the position and attitude, the position and attitude uncertainty, and the radar installation data; and perform modified radar operations and/or processing when the ground surface areas to be avoided are within a radar FOV.
