    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for liveliness detection. In an aspect, a radar sensor of an electronic device transmits a radar frame comprising a plurality of bursts, each burst comprising a plurality of radar pulses, and receives a plurality of reflected radar pulses. The electronic device generates a radar image representing azimuth, elevation, range, and slow time measurements for the radar frame based on the plurality of reflected pulses, applies a Doppler FFT to the radar image to convert the radar image to represent azimuth, elevation, range, and velocity measurements for the radar frame, identifies at least one area of motion in the radar image based on velocity bins of the radar image, and detects a target dynamic object based on a CFAR detection applied over the range and azimuth measurements and a SNR threshold of the received plurality of reflected pulses associated with the at least one area of motion.

    Abstract: A transmitter may be configured to generate a reference signal having a non-constant envelope for nonlinearity estimation by a receiver. The transmitter may transmit the reference signal. A receiver may be configured to receive, from the transmitter, the reference signal having the non-constant envelope. The receiver may estimate at least one nonlinearity characteristic based on the reference signal having the non-constant envelope. The receiver may transmit feedback based on the at least one nonlinearity characteristic and/or perform at least one digital post distortion (DPoD) operation based on the at least one nonlinearity characteristic.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device (WCD) may use training data associated with distortion of sensing signals. Some aspects more specifically relate to correcting distortion from a sensing signal in association with the training data. In some examples, the training data may include distortion measured in an environment without a sensing target. In some examples, the training data may include distortion measured via a dedicated hardware path within the WCD. The WCD may use the training data to identify whether an object is present or may use the training data to remove distortion from a sensing signal.

    Abstract: A method of motion compensation for a Doppler radar system includes receiving, for each transmitted pulse of a set of transmitted pulses, a respective set of echo signals returned from a plurality of distance ranges, performing Doppler Fourier transforms on the sets of echo signals for the set of transmitted pulses to generate outputs that include detected signals in a plurality of velocity bins, and applying a respective pre-determined compensation phase vector to the detected signals in each velocity bin of the plurality of velocity bins. The respective pre-determined compensation phase vector applied to the detected signals in each velocity bin includes at least one of a first component proportional to a velocity of the velocity bin or a second component for compensating a phase compensation error associated with Doppler velocity aliasing.

    Abstract: Techniques provided herein are directed toward enabling short-range proximity detection using radar sensors by reducing or eliminating OTA leakage. Embodiments generally include performing spatial cancellation by using a plurality of transmit/receive pairs of antenna elements to implement analog and/or digital leakage cancellation on the transmit and/or receive side. According to some embodiments null space projection cancellation, OTA leakage tracking, or adaptive minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamforming may be performed to help preserve of the OTA leakage cancellation efficacy over time.
