Improve Radar Sensing Performance of Multiple Roadside Units Cooperation via Space Registration
Roadside units (RSUs) can help vehicles sense the traffic environment, so as to improve traffic safety. Since the sensing capability of single RSU is limited, we propose a multiple RSUs cooperative radar sensing network (RSU-CRSN) with signal-level fusion technique. Spatial registration is an essential prerequisite and foundation for RSU-CRSN with signal-level fusion. In this paper, we present an adjustable beam enabled spatial registration algorithm (AB-SRA) that makes the sensing area of each RSU coincide by adjusting the sensing beam width of RSU. To adjust the width of sensing beam flexibly, a beamwidth adjustable beamforming algorithm (BABA) is proposed in this paper. Simulation results show that the performance of AB-SRA is close to perfect spatial registration.
