2. 1. Models for tracking in automotive safety systems

   Author : Fredrik Bengtsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; motion models; active safety; vehicle tracking; Automotive; radar detections; preventive safety;

   Abstract : This thesis treats the three main components of a tracking system: motion models, sensor models and implementation architecture. A tracking system utilizes models to extract as much information as possible from a set of sensors, with the purpose of estimating the state of a dynamic system. READ MORE

4. 2. Tracking and radar sensor modelling for automotive safety systems

   Author : Lars Danielsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; motion models; automotive safety systems; sensor data fusion; radar sensor models; extended target tracking;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the problem of tracking in the setting of an automotive safety system. In particular, it considers the problem of estimating the surrounding traffic situation using observations from radar sensors. READ MORE

5. 3. Millimeter-Wave Radar for Low-Power Applications

   Author : Sebastian Heunisch; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gesture Recognition; Material Characterization; Radar; Reflectrometry; Resonant-Tunnelling Diode; Wavelet Generator; Wideband Millimeter-Wave Circuits;

   Abstract : Radar technology has developed rapidly during the last century. Besides its initial use for military, it is nowadays also applied for many civil applications. Improvements in circuit technology make integrated radar sensors possible, allowing a significant reduction of the production cost. READ MORE

6. 4. Filtering and modelling for automotive safety systems

   Author : Fredrik Sandblom; Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; decision-making; automotive safety; sensor data fusion; motion models; radar sensor models; filtering theory; moment estimation;

   Abstract : This thesis makes five important contributions to the development of an automotive safety system: filtering algorithms, three modelling frameworks concerning the usage of radar detections in tracking, vehicle motion, and decision-making for intervention decisions, and finally the implementation architecture.In the filtering context, we have developed a new sigma-point method for estimating the moments of a transformed Gaussian random variable.

7. 5. Models and Algorithms - with applications to vehicle tracking and frequency estimation

   Author : Joakim Gunnarsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; motion models; subspace methods; radar detections; Automotive; F-ESPRIT.; vehicle tracking; frequency estimation;

   Abstract : This thesis considers two different research problems; one concerned with the issue of tracking vehicles and one related to estimating frequencies in harmonic signals. The vehicle-tracking problem is addressed from the perspective of an automotive-safety application, which seeks to monitor the course of surrounding road users with the objective to make decisions regarding if, how and when to intervene.
