    Abstract: A method of processing radar signalling, the method comprising: receiving a mask (815) that represents samples in the radar signalling that are detected as including interference. The mask (815) comprises a matrix of data having a first dimension and a second dimension, wherein the first dimension represents a fast-time axis and the second dimension represents a slow-time axis. The method further comprises performing frequency analysis on the mask (815) across each of the fast-time axis and the slow-time axis of the mask in order to provide a range-Doppler processed mask (817); and deconvolving a range-Doppler map (813) of the received radar signalling using the range-Doppler processed mask (817) in order to provide a deconvolved-range-Doppler map (814).

    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for determining an unambiguous direction of arrival (DoA) for radio frequency (RF) signals received by a sparse array. A DoA angle domain is split into hypothesis regions. The hypothesis regions are derived from the phase differences of the antenna element pairs used for the DoA angle estimate. In each hypothesis region, the ambiguous phase of antenna element pairs is unwrapped according to expected wrap-around. After unwrapping the phase, for each hypothesis region, a phasor is calculated by combining the individual antenna element pair phasors. The hypothesis region that obtains the phasor with a largest amplitude is selected as the most likely DoA region and the phase of the winning phasor is used as an unambiguous estimate for the DoA angle.

    Abstract: A system includes a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing machine instructions that cause the processor to perform a first fast Fourier transform (FFT) on received radar data to obtain a range-antenna data array and to perform a second FFT on the range-antenna data array to obtain a range-Doppler-antenna data cube. The processor performs peak detection on the range-Doppler-antenna data cube based on object information to obtain a subset that includes confirmed peaks and candidate peaks. The processor performs angle of arrival calculations for the subset of the range-Doppler-antenna data cube, and filters candidate peaks in the subset to obtain a point cloud representative of an environment. In some implementations, the confirmed peaks are detected based on a default threshold value, the candidate peaks are detected based on at least one adapted threshold value, and the at least one adapted threshold value is determined based on the object information.
