Radar in Automated Driving Toolbox

Hi all,

Does the Radar sensor in Automated Driving Toolbox-Driving Scenario Designer provides velocity measurements as well?

In fact the radial velocity measurement that the radar returns in reality.

The RADAR block gives three outputs

• Detections
• Clustered Detections
• Tracks

The Detections only give you radial velocity. This is stored in the Measurement section of the bus.

The Tracks give you relative velocity of the objects. This is in the covariance matrix.

This function (Obtain updated track velocities and velocity covariance matrix - MATLAB getTrackVelocities (mathworks.com)) will calculate the velocity of each track.
