Abstract

In a method and system for estimating a trajectory of a vehicle having an Electronic Stability Program (ESP), sensor data pertaining to dynamics of the vehicle is obtained, and an estimate of the trajectory of the vehicle is calculated using the sensor data and vehicle dynamics parameters estimated by the ESP. The acquisition of the sensor data and the calculation of vehicle trajectory estimates occur independently of any external signal communication infrastructure-based trajectory estimation tools.
