    摘要: An active electronically steerable receive antenna may comprise an antenna array that includes multiple receive antenna elements. Reflected radar signals may be received at the receive antenna elements, and received signals may be obtained from the receive antenna elements. The received signals may be processed via at least frequency down-conversion, analog-to-digital conversion, generation of digital signals, and alignment of the received signals or the digital signals for a predetermined angle of incidence. Multiple signals including a sum beamforming signal and a product beamforming may be multiplied to determine a beamformed signal. The sum beamforming signal and the product beamforming signal may be respectively determined by summing or multiplying at least two of the digital signals. The product beamforming signal may be a grating lobe suppression signal that suppresses grating lobes of the sum beamforming signal when multiplied with the sum beamforming signal.

    摘要: A method for determining that a received signal is crosstalk. The method includes receiving, from a time-of-flight sensor of a device, a distance and a plurality signal intensity values. The method further includes determining, by the device, whether the distance is less than a near-field threshold. The method further includes, in response to determining that the distance is less than the near-field threshold, determining whether the distance is associated with crosstalk based, at least in part, on the plurality of signal intensity values. The method further includes, in response to determining that the distance is associated with crosstalk, indicating that the distance is associated with crosstalk.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method for computer-implemented processing of SAR raw data, which comprises radar echoes from radar pulse. An interference radar echo and an interference pulse are associated with a respective radar pulse, wherein the interference pulse and the respective radar pulse have orthogonal waveforms. SAR raw data are focused by a first focusing on the interference pulses including a range compression and an azimuth compression, to obtain first focused data, where a filtering is used for the range compression of a respective radar pulse, which filtering is matched to the waveform of the associated interference pulse. Thereafter, the first focused data undergo a signal suppression, which at least partially suppresses the interference radar echo, as a result of which second focused data are obtained. These second focused data finally undergo a defocusing including range decompression and azimuth decompression to obtain modified SAR raw data.

    摘要: An antenna system (1) comprises a directional antenna (2) adapted to rotate through a range of directions in azimuth. It is responsive to radio-frequency (RF) signals received from directions within the range of directions in azimuth. A receiver (7) is arranged to receive the RF signals from the antenna within a signal frequency response band of the receiver and to provide a corresponding output for signal processing. A signal filter (11) is operable to block the output from the receiver when the frequency of the RF signal lies at a frequency within the signal frequency response band of the receiver and a detector unit (8) is arranged to apply the signal filter when the directional antenna is directed to a predetermined azimuth at which an interference source is located and to not apply the signal filter otherwise.
