Abstract: The disclosure provides a radar apparatus. The radar apparatus includes a transmitter that transmits a first chirp. The first chirp is scattered by one or more obstacles to generate a first plurality of scattered signals. A plurality of receivers receives the first plurality of scattered signals. Each receiver of the plurality of receivers generates a digital signal in response to a scattered signal of the first plurality of scattered signals. A processor is coupled to the plurality of receivers and receives the digital signals from the plurality of receivers. The processor performs range FFT (fast fourier transform) and angle FFT on the digital signals received from the plurality of receivers to generate a first matrix of complex samples.

Abstract: Radar systems, radar-implementation methods, and non-transitory processor-readable mediums storing processor-executable instructions for implementing radar chirp generation and processing are provided. An example set of processor-executable instructions includes instructions for configuring each of a plurality of transmitters to transmit each chirp of a set of chirps with a specific spin frequency that is different for each transmitter, in which the specific spin frequency is a function of an index value identifying the corresponding transmitter, and a number of the plurality of transmitters; and determining, in a frequency domain, a Doppler representation based on reflected signals that are reflected from one or more objects contacted by one or more chirps of the transmitted sets of chirps, in which the Doppler representation includes multiple spectrum bands including one or more empty spectrum bands determined by the specific spin frequency function, wherein none of the object(s) appear(s) in any of the empty spectrum band(s).

Abstract: In some examples, a method includes receiving, at a first device, a radar signal transmitted by a second device at a transmission frequency offset from a local oscillator (LO) frequency of the first device by a target offset and reflected off a target. The method also includes determining an intermediate frequency (IF) of the radar signal based on the transmission frequency and the LO frequency. The method also includes determining a parts per million (ppm) offset between the first device and the second device based on the intermediate frequency and the target offset.

Abstract: A radar system comprises a set of transmitters and a processor coupled to the set of transmitters. The processor is configured to modulate a first portion of a chirp in a chirp frame according to a first phase. The processor is further configured to modulate a second portion of the chirp in the chirp frame according to a second phase and configured to combine the first and second portions of the chirp to produce a phase-modified chirp. The processor is further configured to instruct the set of transmitters to transmit the phase-modified chirp by applying time division multiple access (TDMA) and by directing radio frequency energy according to a target angle and a target gain.

Abstract: A vehicle navigation system includes a GNSS position engine (GPE) that uses GNSS satellite measurements to compute a first position and velocity of a vehicle and a first quality metric associated with the position and velocity. The system also includes a dead reckoning engine (DRE) that operates parallel with the GPE that computes a second position and velocity and a second quality metric associated with the dead reckoning. The GPE is configured to use the second position and velocity to detect a set of outliers in an incoming GNSS measurement; use the second position and velocity as an initial estimate of its position and velocity for a particular time instant, which is then refined by GNSS measurements received at that particular time instant; and to replace the first position and velocity with the second position and velocity.
