Chinese Standard Typical Traffic Participant Characteristic Parameters Model Library Construction Technology

In the context of the automotive industry’s rapid evolution, traffic safety has become a top priority. Automobile active safety technology has shown great potential in reducing traffic accidents. Soft targets in intelligent vehicle testing play a pivotal role in assessing active safety performance. However, these targets are designed according to standards set by European and American countries, which may not fully reflect China’s needs. The study’s objective is to design a library of pedestrian parameter models that meet Chinese standards. It began with the design of a representative pedestrian target, created using Chinese body size parameters and data. An experimental investigation was then conducted to determine the radar characteristics of pedestrian targets. A comparative analysis was performed with reference products. The study led to the creation of a model library for pedestrian targets, following the Chinese standard. It was formulated using experimental data and standards.
