Patent ID: 11899101
Assignee: ELEKTROBIT AUTOMOTIVE GMBH
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 7:
8. A device for predicting the course of a road based on radar data of a radar sensor of a motor vehicle, wherein the device is designed to:
receive the radar data;
accumulate the radar data in a measuring grid;
form clusters for objects in the measuring grid;
generate cluster descriptions for the clusters;
transform the clusters into a feature space by a receptive field configured as one or more of a regular grid, a hexagonal arrangement, a circular arrangement, and a circularly hexagonal arrangement;
process the clusters to determine polynomials for describing road edges;
output the polynomials; and
predict a course of a road based on the radar data of a radar sensor of a motor vehicle,
wherein a respective polynomial is generated for each frame of the a motor vehicle's movement.
