A method for identifying a trajectory between rows of a plantation by means of a radar interfaced with processing means of an agricultural vehicle, the method comprising the following steps in the same order: acquisition of an approximate distance (D) between two consecutive rows of the plantation, acquisition of signals by said radar, processing of said signals to obtain a two-dimensional map of points corresponding to reflections picked up by said radar, first linear interpolation to obtain a first interpolating line (IN1) on the points of greatest intensity, second windowing of an elongated area of the two-dimensional map having an axis of development approximately parallel to said first interpolating straight line and at said approximate distance (D) from said first interpolating line, second linear interpolation of a second interpolating straight line (IN2) on points of greater intensity in the windowed area, calculation of a trajectory (T) parallel and intermediate between said first and second interpolating straight line.

Abstract
A method for identifying a trajectory between rows of a plantation by means of a radar interfaced with processing means of an agricultural vehicle, the method comprising the following steps in the same order: acquisition of an approximate distance (D) between two consecutive rows of the plantation, acquisition of signals by said radar, processing of said signals to obtain a two-dimensional map of points corresponding to reflections picked up by said radar, first linear interpolation to obtain a first interpolating line (IN1) on the points of greatest intensity, second windowing of an elongated area of the two-dimensional map having an axis of development approximately parallel to said first interpolating straight line and at said approximate distance (D) from said first interpolating line, second linear interpolation of a second interpolating straight line (IN2) on points of greater intensity in the windowed area, calculation of a trajectory (T) parallel and intermediate between said first and second interpolating straight line.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
