摘要： A radar transceiver includes a phase shifter that is controlled to apply an induced phase shift in a first subset of chirp signals of a frame of chirp signals, which also includes a second subset of chirp signals in which no phase shift is applied. Other circuitry generates digital signals based on received reflected signals, which are based on transmitted signals. Processing circuitry performs a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) on a first subset of digital signals, corresponding to the first subset of chirp signals, to generate a first range-Doppler array, and performs a FFT on the second subset of digital signals, corresponding to the second subset of chirp signals, to generate a second range-Doppler array; identifies peaks in the first and second range-Doppler arrays to detect an object; and compares a phases of peaks at corresponding positions in the first and second range-Doppler arrays to determine a measured phase shift between the two peaks.

摘要： A radar system is provided and includes a radar transceiver integrated circuit (IC) and a processor coupled to the radar transceiver IC. The radar transceiver IC includes a chirp generator configured to generate a plurality of chirp signals and a phase shifter configured to induce a signal phase shift. The radar transceiver IC is configured to transmit a frame of chirps based on the plurality of chirp signals and generate a plurality of digital signals, each digital signal corresponding to a respective reflection received based on the plurality of chirp signals. The processor is configured to control the phase shifter to induce the signal phase shift in a first subset of chirp signals of the plurality of chirp signals and determine a phase shift induced in the first subset of chirp signals by the phase shifter based on the digital signal.

摘要： Aspects of the present disclosure provide for a radar system including a radar IC including a timing engine, a local oscillator, and a modulator. The timing engine is configured to generate one or more chirp control signals. The local oscillator is configured to receive the one or more chirp control signals and generate a frame including a first sequence of chirps according to the one or more chirp control signals. The modulator is configured to modulate the first sequence of chirps to generate a second sequence of chirps so the frame includes the first sequence of chirps and the second sequence of chirps offset by a first frequency value.

摘要： A method for a radar system includes transmitting, by a transmit channel of the radar system, a frame comprising first, second, and third chirps. Each chirp has a chirp start frequency, and the chirp start frequency of the transmitted chirps is dithered. The method also includes receiving, by a receive channel of the radar system, a frame of reflected chirps based on the transmitted frame, and generating a digital intermediate frequency (IF) signal.

摘要： A method for calibrating a cascaded radar system includes transmitting first radar transmission signal from a radar device. First radar reflection signals corresponding to the respective first radar transmission signal reflected from calibration target are received at each of the radar devices. The first radar reflection signals are demodulated to generate first baseband signals at each of the radar devices. A second radar transmission signal is modulated with respect to the first radar transmission signal at the respective one of the radar devices. The second radar transmission signal is transmitted from the respective one of the radar devices and are received as second radar reflection signals at each of the radar devices. The second radar reflection signals are demodulated to generate second baseband signals at each of the radar devices, and each of the radar devices are calibrated based on the first and second baseband signals.

摘要： Methods for monitoring of performance parameters of one or more receive channels and/or one or more transmit channels of a radar system-on-a-chip (SOC) are provided. The radar SOC may include a loopback path coupling at least one transmit channel to at least one receive channel to provide a test signal from the at least one transmit channel to the at least one receive channel when the radar SOC is operated in test mode. In some embodiments, the loopback path includes a combiner coupled to each of one or more transmit channels, a splitter coupled to each of one or more receive channels, and a single wire coupling an output of the combiner to an input of the splitter.
