REAL-TIME THZ SENSING USING TRUE TIME DELAY

A method for real-time THz sensing using true time delay (TTD) is implemented by a base station and includes transmitting, by a transceiver that includes TDD elements and phase shifters configured in the transceiver, simultaneous frequency dependent (SFD) beams to scan an environment at a first granularity to detect a spatial cluster target. Each of the SFD beams corresponds to a different phase angle and different frequency. The method includes determining, among the SFD beams, a subset of beams that detected the spatial cluster target. The method includes beam switching, by the transceiver, using time division multiplexing (TDM) and a TDM bandwidth to scan a portion of the environment at phase angles corresponding to the subset of beams and at a second granularity finer than the first granularity. The method includes combining data received from the SFD beams, by multiple threads that concurrently process data received from the SFD beams.

Device and method for determining the initial direction of movement of an object in the detection range of a motor vehicle radar sensor

An estimated initial direction of movement of a newly-detected object is to be determined. The actual previous directions of movement and positions of previously-detected objects are determined and stored. When a newly-detected object is newly detected at a certain position, then the actual previous direction of movement of one of the previously-detected objects at that position is used as a basis to determine the estimated initial direction of movement of the newly-detected object at that position.
