This block basically transforms all the track predictions one timestep by the ego vehicle motion. This is an important block because the prediction (based on a vehicle motion model) is computed in the ego vehicle frame at the previous timestep. If the ego vehicle was static, the new sensor measurements could easily be associated with the predictions, but this would fail if the ego vehicle moved from its previous position. This is the reason why we need to compensate all the predictions by ego motion first, before moving on to data association with the new measurements. The equations for ego motion compensation are shown below.
