    摘要: Some aspects of the present disclosure relate a radar system including a radio frequency (RF) receiver that receives radar data on a plurality of receive antennas. A fast Fourier transform (FFT) circuit is coupled to the RF receiver. The FFT circuit performs a FFT on the radar data to provide a plurality of Range-Doppler coordinate pairs that pertain to the plurality of receive antennas. An integration block is coupled to the FFT circuit, and sums multiple Range-Doppler coordinate pairs for respective Doppler bins to provide a plurality of Range-Doppler sums. The integration block also sums multiple Range-Doppler sums within the plurality of Range-Doppler sums to provide an integration result. The multiple Range-Doppler coordinate pairs that are summed are spaced apart from one another by a Doppler offset.

    摘要: Provided are methods for generation of representations of radar data. Some methods described include: receiving ADC raw data of a radar sensor of a vehicle; performing range FFT, Doppler FFT, and azimuth FFT on the ADC raw data; generating a 1D range heat map tensor representing the range FFT, a 2D RD heat map tensor representing a combination of the range FFT and the Doppler FFT, a 2D RA heat map tensor representing a combination of the range FFT and the azimuth FFT, or a 3D RAD matrix tensor representing a combination of the range FFT, the Doppler FFT, and the azimuth FFT; and inputting at least one of the 1D range heat map tensor, the 2D RD heat map tensor, the 2D RA heat map tensor, or the 3D RAD matrix tensor, to a machine learning model for detecting objects on a road network around the vehicle.

    摘要: An ultra-wideband sensor transmits impulse radio signals at different times and generates respective channel impulse responses that describe a respective reflected signal as a function of a path delay. The channel impulse responses are used to generate a time-variant channel impulse response in which the channel impulse responses are arranged according to the times of transmission of the respective associated impulse radio signals. At least one respective local maximum of the scatter function quantity, characterized by a respective Doppler frequency and a respective path delay, is detected in scatter functions of respective time windows. A predetermined selection method is used to select at least one local maximum as the respective observation maximum to be tracked for motion detection. A signal characteristic of the channel impulse response is generated for the respective observation maximum to be tracked and a predetermined motion detection method detects at least one predetermined movement.
