DyRAD：面向动态驾驶场景的雷达新视角合成

Abstract:Reconstructing dynamic driving scenes from recorded sensor data supports closed-loop evaluation of autonomous driving systems by synthesizing observations beyond the original trajectory. Unlike cameras and LiDAR, radar measures radial velocity directly through Doppler. Yet existing radar novel-view synthesis fails to exploit this capability: methods addressing dynamic scenes reconstruct only range-azimuth tensors, while methods that render Doppler assume static scenes. Moreover, because radar processing spreads each reflection across multiple bins, existing representations absorb this spread into scene geometry, causing it to render incorrectly when the viewpoint moves. We present DyRAD, which models dynamic driving scenes using static background reflectors and motion-tracked dynamic point reflectors to render complete range-azimuth-Doppler (RAD) tensors. Reflector velocities are derived from object tracks and projected onto the line of sight, making Doppler both a rendered output and supervision for those tracks. Crucially, we render reflectors through a fixed analytic point-spread function (PSF) derived from the radar's signal-processing chain, preventing sensor-induced spread from being baked into the scene representation. Beyond improving scene reconstruction, this separation also enables zero-shot sensor-configuration transfer, allowing the same reconstructed scene to be rendered under different radar specifications without refitting. We evaluate DyRAD on RADIal, Boreas, and a synthetic benchmark across both on-path poses and displaced viewpoints untested by prior work. On RADIal, DyRAD recovers radar detections in 90.7% of reference-detected objects, compared with 26.9% for the strongest baseline.
