Abstract: A set of A set of points of interest, POIs, of a point cloud (311) of a LiDAR system are received at a first filter (315), where each POI of the set of POIs comprises one or more points. Each POI of the set of POIs is filtered. A set of neighborhood points of a POI is selected (322). A metric for the set of neighborhood points is computed (322). Based on the metric, whether to accept the POI, modify the POI, reject the POI, or transmit the POI to a second filter, to extract at least one of range or velocity information related to the target is determined (324). Provided the POI is accepted or modified, the POI is transmitted to a filtered point cloud; provided the POI is rejected, the POI is prevented from reaching the filtered point cloud; provided the POI is not accepted, modified, or rejected, the POI is transmitted to a second filter. Computing the metric may be based on a confidence according to, or a threshold of, a similarity of a velocity, an intensity, or a range; or may be based on a variance of up-chirp frequencies or down-chirp frequencies of the set of neighborhood points and the POI. The LiDAR system may assist with spatial awareness for automated driver assist systems, or self-driving vehicles in order to remove false alarm (untrue) points, such as ghost points or noisy points. The accuracy in the estimated target range/velocity may thus be improved.
