Abstract:
In some examples, a radar system is configured to mount on an ownship vehicle for interleaving a weather detection mode and an object detection mode. The radar system comprises a phased-array radar device configured to receive weather signals in the weather detection mode, receive sensing signals in the object detection mode, and interleave the weather detection mode and the object detection mode. The radar system further comprises processing circuitry configured to determine weather conditions based on the received weather signals and detect an object based on the received sensing signals.
