20220349985 · 2022-11-03 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) (e.g., a vehicle) may determine a configuration, including an offset value for the radar waveform, for transmitting a radar waveform for multiple radar transmitters. The UE may transmit, according to the identified configuration, a first instance of the radar waveform with a first radar transmitter. The UE may also transmit a second instance of the radar waveform with a second radar transmitter. The second instance of the radar waveform may be offset from the first instance of the radar waveform by the offset value. The Offset value may be a time offset, a frequency offset, or both. The UE may identify at least one object, and may filter our interference between the first instance of the radar waveform and the second instance of the radar waveform based on the offset.
