Abstract: In accordance with described examples, a method determines if a velocity of an object detected by a radar is greater than a maximum velocity by receiving on a plurality of receivers at least one frame of chirps transmitted by at least two transmitters and reflected off of the object. A velocity induced phase shift (φd) in a virtual array vector S of signals received by each receiver corresponding to a sequence of chirps (frame) transmitted by each transmitter is estimated. Phases of each element of virtual array vector S are corrected using φd to generate a corrected virtual array vector Sc. A first Fourier transform is performed on the corrected virtual array vector Sc to generate a corrected virtual array spectrum to detect a signature that indicates that the object has an absolute velocity greater than a maximum velocity.

Abstract: An apparatus, including processing unit (PU) cores and computer readable storage devices storing machine instructions for determining a distance between a target object and a radar sensor circuit. The PU cores receive a beat signal generated by the radar sensor circuit and compensate for a phase difference between the received beat signal and a reconstruction of the received beat signal to obtain a phase compensated beat signal. The phase compensated beat signal is then filtered to remove spurious reflections by demodulating the phase compensated beat signal using an estimated frequency of the phase compensated beat signal. The PU cores then apply a low pass filter to the demodulated phase compensated beat signal, resulting in a modified beat signal. The PU cores then determine the distance between the target object and the radar sensor circuit using the modified beat signal.

Abstract: A radar system comprises a set of transmitters and a processor coupled to the set of transmitters. The processor is configured to modulate a first portion of a chirp in a chirp frame according to a first phase. The processor is further configured to modulate a second portion of the chirp in the chirp frame according to a second phase and configured to combine the first and second portions of the chirp to produce a phase-modified chirp. The processor is further configured to instruct the set of transmitters to transmit the phase-modified chirp by applying time division multiple access (TDMA) and by directing radio frequency energy according to a target angle and a target gain.

Abstract: A device is provided. In some examples, the device includes a radar sensor configured to receive reflected chirps. In addition, the device includes processing circuitry configured to determine that a first object is moving. The processing circuitry is further configured to, responsive to determining that the first object is moving, determine a first location of the first object using a single frame of the reflected chirps. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine that a second object is stationary. In addition, the processing circuitry is configured to, responsive to determining that the second object is stationary, determine a second location of the second object using a plurality of frames of the reflected chirps.

Abstract: An FMCW radar is used to detect live objects by processing the matched, filtered radar return on a frame by frame basis. An FFT cross correlation coefficient is computed, followed by computing a modified geometric mean of the absolute value of the cross correlation coefficients. The modified geometric mean is then compared to a preset threshold to determine whether the object is moving or is stationary.
