Abstract

A detection system (10) includes a ranging sensor (16) and a controller circuit (26). The ranging sensor (16) is configured to detect range rates (18) of objects (20) proximate a host vehicle (12). The controller circuit (26) is in communication with the ranging sensor (16). The controller circuit (26) is configured to determine a search area (32) extending from the host vehicle (12). The controller circuit (26) is further configured to determine a first histogram (34) comprising counts of occurrences (36) of the range rates (18) detected within the search area (32). The controller circuit (26) is further configured to determine a second histogram (44) comprising the counts of occurrences (36) of a portion (46) of the range rates (18) detected within the search area (32). The controller circuit (26) is further configured to determine that a trailer (14) is being towed by the host vehicle (12) based on the first histogram (34) and the second histogram (44).
