Abstract

A novel and useful system and method by which radar angle and range resolution are significantly improved without increasing complexity in critical hardware parts. A multi-pulse methodology is described in which each pulse contains partial angular and range information consisting of a portion of the total CPI bandwidth, termed multiband chirp. Each chirp has significantly reduced fractional bandwidth relative to monoband processing. Each chirp contains angular information that fills only a portion of the 'virtual array', while the full virtual array information is contained across the CPI. This is done using only a single transmission antenna per pulse, thus significantly simplifying MIMO hardware realization, referred to as antenna-multiplexing (AM). Techniques for generating the multiband chirps as well as receiving and generating improved fine range-Doppler data maps. A windowing technique deployed in the transmitter as opposed to the receiver is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject matter disclosed herein relates to the field of imaging radar, sonar, ultrasound, and other sensors for performing distance measurements via FMCW signals and / or angle measurements via digital beamforming and array processing, and more particularly to utilizing fractional bandwidth time complex Systems and methods for FMCW radar using nonlinear sequences of FMCW signals and correlation range and Doppler processing techniques. Background technique [0002] Recently, the use of radar in the automotive industry has begun to emerge. High-end cars already have radars that provide parking assistance and lane departure warnings to the driver. Currently, interest in autonomous vehicles is growing and it is currently considered to be a major driving force in the automotive industry in the coming years. [0003] Autonomous vehicles provide a new perspective on the application of radar technology in automobiles. Rather than just assisting the driver...
