Abstract
A radar system comprises a plurality of receive antennas that receive a radar signal. One or more processors are configured to generate an n-dimensional point cloud comprising values for parameters of an object in an environment of the radar system, where the n-dimensional point cloud is generated based upon the radar signal, and where n is greater than 2. The one or more processors are further configured to generate from the n-dimensional point cloud a 2D RGB image representing the values of the parameters in different colors, respectively. The parameters can comprise at least object radar cross-section, height, and velocity, etc. The one or more processers are further configured to provide the 2D RGB image to a convolutional neural network that assigns a classification to the object based on the 2D RGB image.
