   Hi, sorry for the late reply. These are parameters come from, and are described in more detail in the original paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.05347.pdf

   I believe choosing them requires a little bit of trial-and-error, and would be related to the configurations/parameters specific to your radar sensor. Of course, you can tune the algorithm to be more or less sensitive to peaks by changing this params, but it is environment specific.

   For getPointCloudPolarInd, we never actually ever pass in non None values for peakDistance or peakProminence in our code base. That function calls scipy.signal.find_peaks(azimuthReading, distance=peakDistance, prominence=peakProminence) so we just use the default scipy value. As @Samleo8 said, you may want to play around with various parameters based on your specific dataset.
