Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for detecting a plurality of targets in a radar device are disclosed. A transmitter transmits a source signal and a receiver receives echo signals from reflection of the source signal from the plurality of targets. A composite signal is generated that includes a plurality of target signals from the plurality of echo signals. A largest signal in the composite signal is identified and a value of a parameter of the largest signal is estimated. A representative signal is generated as a convolution of a point target having the estimated value of the parameter. The representative signal is subtracted from the composite signal to obtain a remaining signal. Another of the plurality of targets is determined using the remaining signal.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a frequency of an echo signal obtained by a radar system is disclosed. The echo signal in response to a source signal of the radar system is received at a receiver. A harmonic oscillator generates a harmonic component signal, and a multiplier multiplies the echo signal with the harmonic component signal to obtain a combined signal. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is performed on the combined signal to obtain a peak in a frequency space, wherein a central frequency of a frequency bin in the frequency space is shifted with respect to the frequency of the echo signal by the harmonic component signal. The frequency of the echo signal is determined from the shifted central frequency.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to processing of electromagnetic signals, and more specifically, for a method and apparatus for managing the computational cost of radar signal processing on a vehicular radar. The system is operative to utilize a Goerzel filter to aid in determining a frequency for a radar echo. In addition the system uses a DFT operation for tracking stationary objects and a FFT operation for tracing moving objects.

Abstract: A system and method for obtaining a Doppler frequency of a target are disclosed. A receiver receives a first plurality of samples of a first echo signal from the target and a second plurality of samples of a second echo signal from the target. The second plurality of samples is separated from the first plurality of samples by a time period. A phase shift is determined for the duration of the time period and the phase shift is applied to the second plurality of samples. The first plurality of samples is combined with the second plurality of samples to obtain combined samples, and the Doppler frequency for the target is obtained from the combined samples.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a distance between a first radar system disposed on a vehicle and a second radar system disposed on the vehicle. A target reflector is moved along a track to a location along a perpendicular bisector of a baseline connecting the first radar system and the second radar system. A direct range measurement is obtained for at least one of the first radar system and the second radar system, and a bistatic range measurement is obtained between the first radar system and the second radar system. A processor determines the distance between the first radar system and the second radar system using the direct range measurement, the bistatic range measurement and a radial length of the target reflector.

Abstract: A method and system to obtain a velocity measurement of a target detected by a radar system using an asymmetric Doppler spectrum includes a receive portion of the radar system to receive a reflected signal from the target. A mixer mixes the reflected signal with a shifted signal to obtain a mixed signal. The shifted signal is a shifted version of a transmitted signal that results in the reflected signal and the Doppler spectrum is defined by a frequency shift value of the shifted signal. A processor processes the mixed signal to obtain the velocity measurement.

Abstract: A system and method synchronize two radars by transmitting a linear frequency modulated first signal from a first radar, receiving a first reflection at the first radar based on the first signal, transmitting a linear frequency modulated second signal from a second radar, and receiving a second reflection at the second radar based on the second signal. A fast Fourier transform is performed on the first reflection and on the second reflection to obtain a first frequency-domain signal and a second frequency-domain signal. The first frequency-domain signal and the second frequency-domain signal are converted to the time domain to obtain a first time-domain signal and a second time-domain signal. The first time-domain signal and the second time-domain signal are processed to obtain a time difference in transmission of the first signal and the second signal, and the two radars are adjusted based on the time difference to synchronize subsequent transmissions.
