Less Details

  • What methods are most effective in filtering radar clutter and minimizing false positives?
  • How does sensor fusion help radar differentiate real objects from noise, especially in dense urban areas?
  • What unique challenges does radar face in urban settings compared to highways?
  • How can we overcome common radar occlusion scenarios and reduce blind spots?
  • What role does high-resolution radar play in handling clutter and occlusion issues?
