    Abstract: Systems and methods of harvesting wireless energy for climate control in a cabin of a vehicle are provided. The method comprises receiving an electromagnetic (EM) signal of EM radiation having EM energy to define an EM current. The method further comprises filtering the EM energy to regulate the EM current converting the EM current to direct current. The method further comprises storing the direct current for powering a battery-free wireless sensing unit and powering the battery-free wireless sensing unit with the direct current. After powering the battery-free wireless sensing unit, the method comprises sensing an actual condition in the cabin, the actual condition being one of actual temperature and actual humidity in the cabin. Furthermore, the method comprises adjusting one of temperature and humidity in the cabin in response to a difference between the actual condition and a set condition.

    Abstract: A multi-static radar detection system for a vehicle includes one or more receivers for collecting multi-carrier modulation signals emitted by one or more transmitters that are positioned at base stations located in an environment surrounding the vehicle. The multi-carrier modulation signals include one or more types of reference signals. The multi-static radar detection system also includes one or more controllers in electronic communication with the one or more receivers. The one or more controllers execute instructions to collect, by the one or more receivers, a multi-carrier modulation signal emitted by the one or more transmitters. The one or more controllers determine a Doppler shift and a time delay of a respective object located within the environment surrounding the vehicle based on an interpolated time-frequency grid; and transform a value for the Doppler shift into a velocity value and a value for the time delay into a range value.

    Abstract: An occupant detection system for an interior cabin area of a vehicle includes one or more signal conversion devices including conversion circuitry and a wireless control module including a multi-band transceiver having two or more transceivers. The wireless control module executes instructions to continuously send, by a first transceiver, signals on a first frequency band. The wireless control module executes instructions to receive, by a second transceiver, signals on a second frequency band from a signal conversion device. The wireless control module compares original training symbols from the signals on the first frequency band with training symbols from the signals on the second frequency band to determine a change in value of in one or more channel state information (CSI) parameters, and determines one or more occupants are present within the interior cabin area of the vehicle based on the change in one or more CSI parameters.

    Abstract: A calibration pipeline for 6DoF alignment parameters for an autonomous vehicle includes an automated driving controller instructed to receive inertial measurement unit (IMU) poses and final radar poses and determine smoothened IMU poses from the IMU poses and smoothened final radar poses from the final radar poses. The automated driving controller aligns the smoothened IMU poses and the smoothened final radar poses with one another to create a plurality of radar-IMU A, B relative pose pairs. The automated riving controller determines a solution yielding a threshold number of inliers of further filtered radar-IMU A, B relative pose pairs, randomly samples the further filtered radar-IMU A, B relative pose pairs with replacements several times to determine a stream of filtered radar-IMU A, B relative pose pairs, and solves for a solution X for the stream of filtered radar-IMU A, B relative pose pairs.
