OBJECT DETECTION USING RADAR

Method and systems for object detection using a radar module are disclosed. Frames of range and doppler data are received from a radar module at sample time intervals. Doppler zero slice data is extracted from a current frame of the range and doppler data. A prediction of doppler zero slice data is maintained. The prediction of doppler zero slice data is based at least partly on doppler zero slice data from a previous frame of range and doppler data. Standard deviation data is determined based at least partly on prediction error data. The prediction error data relates to a difference between the prediction of doppler zero slice data and the doppler zero slice data. An object detection output is determined based on a comparison of the standard deviation data and an object detection threshold.
