Millimeter-wave radar image analysis for the traffic sensing

Millimeter-wave(MMW) radar sensing is one of the most promising technologies to provide safe navigation for autonomous vehicles due to its expected high-resolution imaging capability However, driverless cars have higher request for different environment and light conditions. Therefore, millimetre-wave imaging is of paramount importance for complex load scenario. In this paper, we have built models of pavement pits and bulges and analysed their with differences ways of antennas. A comparison of the imaging performance of experimental systems operating at a MMW radar and a Lidar is presented with the analysis of features for initial image interpretation Experimental images of the complex road surface are made by a 94GHz frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar technique with 3mm wavelength.
