Method and control device for determining a movement direction of an object moving towards a vehicle
DRIVE
June 15, 2011
The method involves receiving two sensor signals from radar sensors (110, 120), where the sensor signals represent speed of an object to be moved adjacent to a vehicle (100) at two signal measuring positions in a left side and a right side or in a front side of the vehicle, respectively. The sensor signals and information about distance between the signal measuring positions are combined for determining a movement direction of the object, where the sensor signals contain information about intensity of radar radiations reflected by the object. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer program product comprising a program code for executing a method for determining a movement direction of an object to be moved (2) a sensor system comprising a radar sensor arranged in a left side of a vehicle.
