Abstract: A radar device is disclosed that includes an input DMA module, at least one processing module, a histogram module, and an output DMA module. The input DMA module is configured to access a memory and supply data from the memory to the at least one processing module and/or to the histogram module. Each of the processing modules is configured to be enabled or disabled, wherein the at least one processing module that is enabled is configured to process at least a portion of the data supplied by the input DMA module, wherein the histogram module is fed by data from the at least processing module that is enabled and/or by the input DMA module. The output DMA module is configured to store the data that are processed by the at least one processing module that is enabled in the memory. Also, an according method is provided.

Abstract: A method for a radar system having a plurality of antennas is provided. The method includes processing a plurality of radar signals for determining a distance between the radar system and at least one target and a velocity of the at least one target, thereby forming a plurality of processed radar signals. Each radar signal of the plurality of radar signals is received by an associated antenna of the plurality of antennas. The plurality of processed radar signals are digitally beamformed for at least one beam direction, thereby forming a plurality of beamformed radar signals. The plurality of beamformed radar signals are summed from the plurality of antennas per beam direction.

Abstract: In some methods, sampled values based on a reception signal are stored in rows and columns of a memory array. A first 1-dimensional (1D) detector is moved in a first direction over the memory array. The first 1D detector includes a first cell under test and first and second training cells on opposite sides of the first cell under test. The first cell under test and the first and second training cells of the first 1D detector being aligned in the first direction. A second 1D detector is moved over the memory array. The second 1D detector includes a second cell under test and third and fourth training cells on opposite sides of the second cell under test. The second cell under test and the third and fourth training cells of the second 1D detector are aligned in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction.

Abstract: A radar sensor is described herein. In accordance with one example embodiment the radar sensor includes a transmitter for transmitting an RF signal and a receiver configured to receive a respective back-scattered signal from at least one radar target and to provide a corresponding digital radar signal. The radar sensor further includes a processor configured to convert the digital radar signal into the frequency do-main thus providing respective frequency domain data and to compress the frequency domain data. A communication interface is configured to transmit the compressed frequency domain data via a communication link operably coupled to the communication interface. Furthermore, respective and related radar methods and systems are described.
