Controllable Radar Simulation with Waveform Parameter Embedding 文章

arXiv:2506.03134v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous driving simulators still lack high-fidelity radar, even though radar is critical for robust perception in adverse weather. A key obstacle is that raw radar point clouds are extremely sparse and stochastic, making it difficult to model; we argue that simulating the full range-azimuth-Doppler cube is a more principled target. Existing radar cube simulators either rely purely on neural generators, which are opaque and offer little control over sensor attributes, or on detailed electromagnetic pipelines, which are slow, require proprietary hardware specifications, and still struggle to capture real-world complexity. We introduce Ctrl-RS, a controllable radar cube simulation framework that combines the strengths of both worlds. First, we build an environment reflection tensor from diverse sensor sources (including LiDAR, monocular cameras, and existing radar).
