E 72 (2005) 066124) to further analyse the two-lane traffic waves. Our numerical results show that in the two-lane traffic, there exist triangular shock, soliton wave and kink wave which appear in the stable, mestastable and unstable regions of headway-sensitivity space, respectively. Compared with the single-lane traffic, it is found that the lateral distance has little effect on the formation of triangular shock and soliton wave although the lateral distance can enlarge the stable region and can reduce the mestastable and unstable regions.展开更多

From the perspective of relationship between the sensor coordinate system and the target body coordinate system, a basic model of sensor is stated and the definition of relative angular velocity between the two coordinate systems is introduced firstly. Then, the three-dimensional analytic expressions of relative angular velocity for different motion modes are derived and simplified by analyzing the influences of target centroid motion, rotation around centroid and relative motion. Finally, the relationships of the relative angular velocity directions and values with motion modes are discussed. Simulation results validate the rationality of the theoretical analysis. It is demonstrated that there are significant differences of the relative orientation in different motion modes which include luxuriant information about motion modes. The conclusions are significant for the research of motion mode identification,maneuver detection, maneuvering target tracking and interception using target signatures.展开更多
