Reflection-Aware Reasoning for Non-Line-of-Sight Pedestrian Localization
arXiv:2609.27346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliable localization of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) pedestrians is critical for safe urban autonomous driving, yet it remains highly challenging in ego-dynamic outdoor environments, where ego-vehicle motion makes radar multipath propagation complex and noisy.

arXiv:2609.27346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliable localization of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) pedestrians is critical for safe urban autonomous driving, yet it remains highly challenging in ego-dynamic outdoor environments, where ego-vehicle motion makes radar multipath propagation complex and noisy. In this paper, we present a reflection-aware framework for NLOS pedestrian localization with a moving ego-vehicle in outdoor testbed scenarios. Our framework fuses front-view camera images and 2D radar point clouds to infer reflection orders and reflective surface distributions in bird's-eye-view space. It then uses physics-guided ray tracing to reconstruct distorted reflection paths and localize the hidden pedestrian. We validate the framework in outdoor testbed scenarios under ego-dynamic conditions. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework for NLOS pedestrian localization with a moving ego-vehicle.
