A radar device includes: a transmission unit; a reception unit; an interference signal processing unit that cancels an influence of an interference signal from a beat signal; and an object detection unit that detects the object based on the beat signal. The interference signal processing unit includes: a digital converter that converts the beat signal into a time sample; a multiple resolution analysis unit that converts the time sample into time-frequency plots; an interference plot detection unit that detects an interference plot; an interference cancellation unit that cancels the influence of the interference signal; and a reverse converter that reverse converts the time-frequency plots into the time sample. The object detection unit detects the object using the reversely converted time sample.

Disclosed is a method and system for navigating an instrument relative to a patient that can be near a field distorting feature. A localizer can generate an electromagnetic field that is sensed by a tracking device to determine a location of the tracking device with the sensed electromagnetic field. The system and related method can assist in determining whether a navigation field is distorted near a tracking device of the instrument.

Exemplary aspects are directed to a radar-based detection circuit or system with signal reception circuitry to receive reflection signals in response to radar signals transmitted towards objects. The system may include logic/computer circuitry and a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) virtual array to enhance resolution or remove ambiguities otherwise present in processed reflection signals. The MIMO array may include sparse linear arrays, each being associated with a unique antenna-element spacing from among a set of unique co-prime antenna-element spacings.

A radar sensing system for a vehicle includes at least one transmitter, at least one receiver, and a processor. The at least one transmitter is operable to transmit a radio signal at one of a plurality of carrier frequencies. The at least one receiver is operable to receive a radio signal which includes a reflected radio signal that is the transmitted radio signal reflected from an object. The at least one receiver is operable to receive an interfering radio signal transmitted by a transmitter of another radar sensing system. The processor is operable to control the at least one transmitter to selectively transmit radio signals on one of the plurality of carrier frequencies. The processor is further operable to at least one of select a carrier frequency with reduced interference and avoid interference from the other radar sensing system.

Provided is a code allocating apparatus including an interference signal measurer configured to measure interference signals, an interference signal sharer configured to control radars to share the measured interference signals between the radars, a code allocator configured to dynamically allocate a code generated based on the measured interference signals to each of the radars, and a code applier configured to apply the code to each of the radars.

A method for processing a measurement signal that is captured by a measuring device, wherein, in order to capture the measurement signal, the measuring device emits a transmission signal and receives a component of the transmission signal that is reflected by an object as a reception signal, wherein a first phase difference between a first target phase position and a first actual phase position contained in the measurement signal is determined, and wherein a second phase difference between a second target phase position and a second actual phase position contained in the measurement signal is determined, and a phase difference progression in the form of an, in particular, linear, functional relationship is determined on the basis of the first and the second phase differences, and a measured value is determined by means of the functional relationship.

A transmission control method includes steps for obtaining interference information of a first radar on a first frequency band, for example, through listening before transmission. The interference information represents a degree to which the first radar is interfered with on the first frequency band. Transmission duration of the first radar on the first frequency band is determined based on the interference information, where the interference information indicates either a difference between the transmission duration and an initial transmission duration of the first radar, or the transmission duration.

The invention relates to a radar system for capturing surroundings of a moving object, in particular a vehicle and/or a transportation apparatus, such as a crane, in particular, wherein the system is mounted or mountable on the moving object, wherein the radar system comprises at least two non-coherent radar modules (RM 1, RM 2, . . . RM N) having at least one transmitter antenna and at least one receiver antenna, wherein the radar modules (RM 1, RM 2, . . . RM N) are arranged or arrangeable in distributed fashion on the moving object, wherein provision is made of at least one evaluation device which is configured to process transmitted and received signals of the radar modules to form modified measurement signals in such a way that the modified measurement signals are coherent in relation to one another.

Disclosed are an autonomous emergency braking system and a method of controlling the same, wherein at least one track corresponding to the target is formed using the received radar signal, it is determined whether the tracks are generated by another vehicle, and it is determined whether the tracks determined to be generated by the other vehicle are generated by an overhead structure. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the overhead structure from being mistaken for a vehicle and thus to prevent a malfunction of the system and improve reliability.

Systems and methods are provided for optimizing the channel switching process in an access point. Periodic background scanning of a current channel on which a radio is operating to determine channel utilization can be used to generate a ranked channel list from which to select an alternative channel to which the radio can migrate, for example, in the event of a radar signal(s) being detected on its current channel. To maintain connectivity for clients, the clients may be temporarily transitioned to a non-DFS channel while an isolated/dedicated radio chain is used to perform the requisite Channel Availability Check (CAC) assessment on a DFS channel if the radio, based on the ranked channel list, selects a DFS channel as the alternative channel.
