METHOD FOR ULTRASOUND-BASED OBJECT CLASSIFICATION AND DEVICE FOR PERFORMING ULTRASOUND-BASED OBJECT CLASSIFICATION

Abstract: a method for ultrasound-based object classification. the method includes generating a time reflection signal at a first ultrasonic sensor; receiving and/or generating secondary signals of at least one or more ultrasonic sensors adjacent to the first ultrasonic sensor, and extracting predetermined features from the secondary signals, which are generated at the adjacent ultrasonic sensors when the time reflection signal is received; transmitting the time reflection signal and the predetermined features from the secondary signals to a classifier device; fusing the time reflection signal and the predetermined features by the classifier device, wherein a training data set for a present sensor arrangement is taken into account; and outputting an object classification by the classifier device.
