摘要
Accurate environmental representations play a crucial role in trajectory planning for autonomous driving. In addition to localizing road users, obstacles, and road boundaries, the identification of optical road markings is vital for lane recognition. While optical systems, such as cameras and lidar sensors, are commonly employed for this task, they are susceptible to weather conditions. This letter introduces a novel approach that utilizes automotive chirp-sequence radar sensors exclusively for the detection of conventional road markings. This eliminates the need for additional particles or substances to be applied to the road markings, as demonstrated through an indicative analysis based on real-world measurements in public traffic.
