contents In this work, we introduce RadarTrack, an innovative ego-speed estimation framework utilizing a single-chip millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar to deliver robust speed estimation for mobile platforms. Unlike previous methods that depend on cross-modal learning and computationally intensive Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), RadarTrack utilizes a novel phase-based speed estimation approach. This method effectively overcomes the limitations of conventional ego-speed estimation approaches which rely on doppler measurements and static surrondings. RadarTrack is designed for low-latency operation on embedded platforms, making it suitable for real-time applications where speed and efficiency are critical. Our key contributions include the introduction of a novel phase-based speed estimation technique solely based on signal processing and the implementation of a real-time prototype validated through extensive real-world evaluations. By providing a reliable and lightweight solution for ego-speed estimation, RadarTrack holds significant potential for a wide range of applications, including micro-robotics, augmented reality, and autonomous navigation.
