Abstract:
A method and apparatus for vehicle recognition are provided, which are combined with a radar apparatus scanning a detection area with electromagnetic waves. Data derived from reflection waves are outputted from the radar apparatus to the vehicle recognizing apparatus to detect a vehicle in the detection area. The vehicle recognizing apparatus is provided with a processor performing a process for the recognition on calculation of the received data for the recognition of vehicles. In the process, weak-refection directions providing weak-reflection points on a vehicle are determined which are defined as radiation directions of the electromagnetic waves in which the reflection waves have intensities lower than a threshold. A common reflection point group defined as a group of reflection points belonging to the same vehicle is supplemented with the weak-reflection points for completing the common reflection point group.

Claim (Index 5):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the radar apparatus is configured to radiate the electromagnetic waves obliquely downward.
