METHOD OF PROCESSING RADAR SIGNALLING
A method of processing radar signalling, the method comprising: receiving a mask (815) that represents samples in the radar signalling that are detected as including interference. The mask (815) comprises a matrix of data having a first dimension and a second dimension, wherein the first dimension represents a fast-time axis and the second dimension represents a slow-time axis. The method further comprises performing frequency analysis on the mask (815) across each of the fast-time axis and the slow-time axis of the mask in order to provide a range-Doppler processed mask (817); and deconvolving a range-Doppler map (813) of the received radar signalling using the range-Doppler processed mask (817) in order to provide a deconvolved-range-Doppler map (814).

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for removing noise for a weather radar and, more particularly, to an apparatus and method for removing noise for a weather radar, the apparatus and method being able to detecting a radio interference echo, which is noise due to radio interference that is generated by reception of other external radio waves to a weather radar except for a radio wave transmitted from the weather radar, separately from weather eco according to normal weather measurement, and being able to remove the radio interference echo.
IN-VEHICLE RADAR SIGNAL CONTROL METHOD, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
An in-vehicle radar signal control method includes: determining a target interference area of a first vehicle, a vehicle in the target interference area interfering with an in-vehicle radar signal of the first vehicle; determining vehicles in the target interference area as a first vehicle cluster, and determining strength of in-vehicle radar signals of vehicles in the first vehicle cluster; determining whether a new second vehicle enters the target interference area; and in response to a determination that the second vehicle enters the target interference area, obtaining an adjustment signal; the adjustment signal indicating one or more of: increasing or reducing strength of the in-vehicle radar signal of the first vehicle, adjusting a travel speed of the first vehicle, and adjusting a travel direction of the first vehicle.
TIME-FREQUENCY SPREAD WAVEFORM FOR HIGH-RESOLUTION DIGITAL RADAR
The apparatus includes: a radar circuit including a set of antennas for transmission and reception, a transmitter, a receiver, and a medium access control (MAC) controller. The apparatus further includes a controller operably connected to the radar circuit, the controller configured to identify a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a long constant amplitude zero autocorrelation (CAZAC) sequence including multiple segments, identify, via the MAC controller, time-frequency resources for the multiple segments, identify a set of time-frequency sub-channels in the time-frequency resources, and sequentially map each of the multiple segments to each of the set of time-frequency sub-channels. The radar circuit is configured to transmit, via the transmitter, a first signal based on the set of time-frequency sub-channels.

A radar sensing system including transmit antennas and receive antennas, transmitters, receivers, and a controller. The system further includes a transmit antenna switch selectively coupling each of the transmitters to a respective transmit antenna, and a receive antenna switch selectively coupling at least one receiver of the receivers to respective receive antennas. A quantity of receivers is different from a quantity of the receive antennas. The controller is operable to select a quantity of receivers to be coupled to receive antennas to realize a desired quantity of virtual receivers. The controller is operable to select an antenna pattern as defined by the selected quantity of receivers coupled to receive antennas.
