A method of processing communication signals for use in radar sensing comprises segmenting copies of a reference signal and a received echo thereof into first- and second-length segments, respectively. The first- and second-length segments are arranged in respective first and second reference and echo matrices. First and second segmented ambiguity functions based on the first and second matrix pairs are evaluated. For obtaining first and second range estimates and first and second velocity estimates for one or more targets. Any ghost signal detected is resolved, or an ambiguity order is assigned thereto if resolving is not possible. The obtained or resolved range and velocity estimates, or the estimates and the assigned ambiguity order is output, and the evaluation process is iteratively repeated until a termination criterion is met. In the second and each further iteration a respective remaining right-most non-zero columns of the echo matrices are replaced with zero-columns.

The invention refers to a method of continuously, adaptive detection of environment features in autonomous and assisted driving of an ego-vehicle connected to a server and to a plurality of other vehicles. The ego-vehicle and the other vehicles are provided with respective machine learning models that are similar between one another. The method comprises a data collection step by the ego-vehicle in which, based on the machine learning model of the ego-vehicle, the acquired sensors data - among which images, generate a specific scenario interpretation. When feedback is received that the scenario interpretation is wrong, the corresponding images of the ego-vehicle is encoded, hashed and sent to a server with the request to broadcast them to the plurality of other vehicles requesting the other vehicles to communicate the server specific similar scenario interpretations Then, the other vehicles identify the specific combination of environment features corresponding to the wrong scenario interpretation, acquire their owns sensors data and process same, including images that are extracted, encoded and hashed. The other vehicles compare the similarity between the image hashes received from the ego-vehicle and from each of the other vehicles Vi by means of a similarity score surpassing a given threshold, meaning that a high similarity score corresponds to similar data, in terms of structure and content. For the image hashes of the other vehicles where the given threshold is surpassed, the other vehicles identify a specific similar scenario interpretation and send it to the server. The server aggregates the sensors data of the other vehicles corresponding to the image hashes of the other vehicles and of the ego vehicle, incrementally retrains the machine learning model of the ego-vehicle and sends the incrementally - retrained model to the ego-vehicle together. The invention further refers to a trained machine learning model, to a system to carry out the method and to a plurality of non-transitory computer-readable mediums.
