Abstract:
A radar system for a vehicle includes an antenna element installable at an outer shell of the vehicle, a dielectric waveguide, and a radar circuit configured to communicate with the antenna element via the dielectric waveguide. A vehicle includes a plurality of radar radio heads arranged at an outer shell of the vehicle, a plurality of waveguides, and a radar circuit configured to generate a common local oscillator signal and simultaneously provide respective radio frequency signal derived from the common local oscillator signal to the plurality of radar radio heads via the plurality of waveguides.
