3.2.2.1 Use Case – Vehicle, Bicycle, Pedestrian Detection

In this test we use the capabilities of the short range (10m-50m) sub-frame to detect vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians. The processing chain is configured to perform 2D MIMO detection (azimuth only, 1 Tx enabled at a time) with a maximum range of 50m. We perform tests at boresight and at 45 degrees angle. The sensor is placed at bumper height and it is static.

Table 3-1 and Table 3-2 summarize the results.
