Hi,
I understand that you want to generate multi-path channel and use "phased" function to generate a pedestrian dataset.
The "phased.MultipathChannel" system object from the "Phased array system toolbox" can be used to propogate a signal through multipath channel. To create the waveform, you can use "phased.LinearFMWaveform" object. The "phased.WidebandLOSChannel" object can be used to model the propagation of narrowband electromagnetic signals through a line-of-sight (LOS) channel from a source to a destination. Though, in a LOS channel, propagation paths are straight lines from point to point. "phased.RadarTarget" can be used to model the signal reflection from a radar target. Finally, "phased.Platform" can be used to model the target platform.
Once the channel model is created, that is the propagation environment between the radar sensor and the target, you can simulate the radar returns and extract the relevant information, such as target position, velocity, RCS, etc. to generate the pedestrian dataset based on your specific requirements.
You can learn more about these objects below:
Hope this helps!
