摘要: An integrated circuit chip implementing multiplication of an M×N element matrix with an N-element vector to obtain an M-element product by combining the vector with rows of bits of the same significance selected from the matrix one bit-row at a time to form partial products, exploiting the fact that the same potential combinations are needed for all bit-rows and all matrix rows to precompute all of the combinations once and for all, and combining selected partial products for different bit place-significance with a shift-and-add operation only once for each of the M product elements, thereby effectively using only M multiply-equivalent structures. An N-point Complex Fourier Transform can therefore be claimed which only needs 2N real multiplies and the product of an N×N matrix with another N×N matrix requires only N2 multiplies.

摘要: A radar system includes transmitters and receivers configured for installation and use in a vehicle. The transmitters transmit radio signals. The receivers receive radio signals that include the transmitted radio signals reflected from objects in an environment. Each receiver has a controller, a buffer, and a post-buffer processor. The receiver processes the received radio signals and stored data samples in the buffer. The buffer operates in a plurality of modes defined by the controller. Two or more modes of operation of the plurality of modes are performed with a same set of data samples stored in the buffer. The post-buffer processor receives data samples from the buffer and performs at least one of correlation processing to determine object ranges, Doppler processing to determine object velocity, and, in combination with other receivers of the plurality of receivers, further processing to determine angular locations of the objects.

摘要: A radar system processes signals in a flexible, adaptive manner to determine range, Doppler (velocity) and angle of objects in an environment. The radar system includes transmitters configured to transmit radio signals, receivers configured to receive radar signals, and a control unit. The received radio signals include transmitted radio signals transmitted by the transmitters and reflected from objects in an environment. The control unit adaptively controls the transmitters and the receivers based on a selected operating mode for the radar system. The selected operating mode meets a desired operational objective defined by current environmental conditions. The control unit is configured to control the receivers to produce and process data according to the selected operating mode.

摘要: A radar system processes signals in a flexible, adaptive manner to determine range, Doppler (velocity) and angle of objects in an environment. The radar system processes the received signal to achieve different objectives depending on one or more of a selected range resolution, a selected velocity resolution, and a selected angle of arrival resolution, as defined by memory requirements and processing requirements. The system allows improved resolution of range, Doppler and/or angle depending on the memory requirements and processing requirements. The system also adapts to changing environmental conditions including interfering radio signals.

摘要: A radar sensing system includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is configured to transmit a radio signal. The receiver is configured to receive radio signals that include the transmitted radio signal reflected from objects in the environment. The transmitter and receiver are configured to distribute the signal power over frequency so that it is separated from noise and impairments at DC and low frequencies as may be caused by some radar system components which introduce DC offsets and/or low frequency (e.g. flicker) noise.

摘要: A radar system has different modes of operation. In one mode the radar operates as a single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) radar system utilizing one transmitted signal from one antenna at a time. Codes with known excellent autocorrelation properties are utilized in this mode. At each receiver the response after correlating with various possible transmitted signals is measured in order to estimate the interference that each transmitter will represent at each receiver. The estimated effect of the interference from one transmitter on a receiver that correlates with a different code is used to mitigate the interference. In another mode, the radar operates as a MIMO radar system utilizing all the antennas at a time. Interference cancellation of the non-ideal cross correlation sidelobes when transmitting in the MIMO mode are employed to remove ghost targets due to unwanted sidelobes.

摘要: A radar sensing system includes at least one transmitter, at least one receiver and a processor. The at least one transmitter transmits a power shaped radio signal. The at least one receiver receives radio signal that includes the transmitted radio signal reflected from targets in the environment. The received radio signal is provided to the processor. The processor samples the received radio signal during a plurality of time intervals to produce a sampled stream. The different time intervals of the plurality of time intervals will contain different signal levels of radio signals reflected from the targets. The processor also selects a particular time interval of the plurality of time intervals that is free of samples of radio signals reflected off of the targets that are closer than a first threshold distance from an equipped vehicle.

摘要: A radar sensing system for a vehicle includes a transmitter, a receiver, a memory, and a processor. The transmitter transmits a radio signal and the receiver receives a reflected radio signal. The processor samples reflected radio signals during a plurality of time slices. The processor produces samples by correlating reflected radio signals to time-delayed replicas of transmitted radio signals. The processor accumulates the time slices into a first radar data cube and stores the first radar data cube in a memory. The processor combines a portion of the first radar data cube with a portion of a previously stored radar data cube. Based at least in part on the combined portions of the radar data cubes, the processor processes a time series that is a time series of the first radar data cube concatenated with a time series from the previously stored radar data cube.

摘要: A method for operating a radar sensing system includes configuring a transmitter to transmit a radio signal. A receiver is configured to receive radio signals. The received radio signals include the transmitted radio signal transmitted by the transmitter and reflected from objects in the environment. The method includes with advanced temporal knowledge of the codes used to modulate the transmitted radio signal, using code values of the plurality of codes, and in combination with a bank of digital finite impulse response (FIR) filters, generating complementary signals of any self-interference noise. The method further includes subtracting the complementary signals at one or more points in the receiver prior to the interference desensing the receiver. The radar sensing system further includes a frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) interference canceller for detecting the largest interference signals and sequentially cancelling them while signal processing the received radio signals.
