SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ONBOARD ANALYSIS OF SENSOR DATA FOR SENSOR FUSION

Systems and methods for detecting and tracking objects using radar data are disclosed. The methods include receiving measurement data corresponding to an environment of a vehicle from a radar sensor associated with the vehicle, and identifying one or more object tracks of a plurality of object tracks that lie within an extended field of view (FOV) of the radar sensor. The extended FOV may be determined based on an original FOV of the radar sensor. The methods further include performing association of the measurement data with the one or more object tracks to identify an associated object track, and outputting the associated object track and the measurement data to a navigation system of the vehicle.
