Claim 0:
1. A method for identifying and classifying static radar targets using a radar sensor of a motor vehicle, the method comprising the following steps:
obtaining a plurality of radar signals;
based on parameters of the radar signals, determining that the plurality of radar signals are reflected by a same object;
based on the determination, generating, in an occupancy grid an occupancy pattern, formed of a combination of a subset of cells of the occupancy grid, corresponding to the object based on the plurality of radar signals that have been determined to have been reflected by the same object, the pattern being formed by an association of each cell of the subset of cells with a same identification (ID) corresponding to the object;
subsequent to the generating of the occupancy pattern in the occupancy grid, classifying the object as being at least one of (a) a non-static radar target and (b) a traversable radar target, the classifying being based on characteristic features of radar signatures of a portion of the plurality of radar signals reflected by a part of the object; and
based on the classification, removing from the occupancy grid an entirety of the occupancy pattern due to the correspondence of the occupancy pattern to the object.
