Systems and methods for simultaneously recovering and separate sounds from multiple sources using Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) signals are described. In one embodiment, a device can be configured for generating an audio signal based on audio source ranging using ultrawideband signals. In an embodiment the device includes, a transmitter circuitry, a receiver circuitry, memory and a processor. The processor configured to generate a radio signal. The radio signal including an ultra-wideband Gaussian pulse modulated on a radio-frequency carrier. The processor further configured to transmit the radio signal using the transmitter circuitry, receive one or more backscattered signals at the receiver circuitry, demodulate the one or more backscattered signals to generate one or more baseband signals, and generate a set of data frames based on the one or more baseband signals.

A phased-array Doppler radar includes a two-way splitter, a transmit antenna, a receive antenna array, an ILO, a demodulation unit and a digital signal processing unit. A reference signal is split by the two-way splitter to the transmit antenna for transmission to targets and the ILO for injection locking. Signals reflected by the targets are received by the receive antenna array as received signals. An injection-locked signal generated by the ILO and the received signals received by the receive antenna array are delivered to the demodulation unit. The received signals are demodulated into baseband I/Q signals by the demodulation unit that uses the injection-locked signal as a local oscillator signal. The baseband I/Q signals are processed by the digital signal processing unit to obtain a digital beamforming pattern.

Provided is a radar device including: a transmission circuit that transmits a first transmission signal and a second transmission signal which have frequencies different from each other; a reception circuit that receives the first transmission signal and the second transmission signal which are reflected by one or a plurality of objects as a first reception signal and a second reception signal, a processor, and a memory that stores a command group executable by the processor. Quadrature demodulation is performed with respect to each of the first reception signal and the second reception signal, at least one of the first reception signal and the second reception signal is rotated on an IQ plane in correspondence with a predetermined phase angle corresponding to a predetermined distance, and the first frequency or the second frequency, the first reception signal and the second reception signal of which one is rotated is added or subtracted, and the one or plurality of objects are detected on the basis of a processing result of a processing means.

An ultra-wideband radar transceiver and an operating method thereof are provided. The ultra-wideband radar transceiver includes a receiving module. The receiving module includes an I/Q signal generator, a first sensing circuit and a second sensing circuit. The I/Q signal generator receives M consecutive echo signals and generates M consecutive in-phase signals and M consecutive quadrature-phase signals accordingly, wherein M is an integer greater than 1. The first sensing circuit is coupled to the I/Q signal generator to receive the M consecutive in-phase signals and is configured to perform integration and analog-to-digital conversion on the M consecutive in-phase signals to generate a first digital data. The second sensing circuit is coupled to the I/Q signal generator to receive the M consecutive quadrature-phase signals and is configured to perform integration and analog-to-digital conversion on the M consecutive quadrature-phase signals to generate a second digital data.

Example chipsets disclosed herein to implement a software defined radar architecture include a digital processor chip including a first serial port and a second serial port. Disclosed example chipsets also include a transmitter chip to generate a plurality of transmit signals based on baseband radar waveform data to be obtained from the digital processor chip, the transmitter chip including a third serial port to communicate with the first serial port of the digital processor chip to obtain the baseband radar waveform data. Disclosed example chipsets further include a receiver chip to determine baseband received radar data from a plurality of radar signals, the receiver chip including a fourth serial port to communicate with the second serial port of the digital processor chip to provide the baseband received radar data to the digital processor chip.

Embodiments described herein can address these and other issues by using radar machine learning to address the radio frequency (RF) to perform object identification, including facial recognition. In particular, embodiments may obtain IQ samples by transmitting and receiving a plurality of data packets with a respective plurality of transmitter antenna elements and receiver antenna elements, where each data packet of the plurality of data packets comprises one or more complementary pairs of Golay sequences. I/Q samples indicative of a channel impulse responses of an identification region obtained from the transmission and reception of the plurality of data packets may then be used to identify, with a random forest model, a physical object in the identification region.

Implementation of radio frequency applications in satellite environments can be constrained by size, mass, cost, and power limitations. These applications can include radar, communications, radio astronomy, or other scientific or industrial applications. A variety of systems are provided to facilitate recording of baseband radio frequency signals at high bandwidth and low power using low-cost components. These systems include field-programmable gate arrays or other programmable logic devices integrating between high-frequency ADCs and two or more multiplexed non-volatile storage mediums. Also provided are systems for providing calibration and self-test functionality in a low-cost, flexible, low-power radio frequency frontend. These systems include high-frequency switches configured to allow a calibration and/or self-test pulse to be acquired for each radar pulse generated by the system.

A method is provided for facilitating radar detection robust to IQ imbalance. The method comprises the step of generating a radar signal in digital domain comprising a number of M periodic repetitions of a code sequence with a length Lc, multiplied with a progressive phase rotation

[00001]$e^{j.Math.\frac{\pi }{K}.Math.n},$

where Lc and M are integers, K is an integer or a non-integer, and n is a discrete integer variable. The method further comprises the step of generating a process input signal in digital domain from a reflection signal corresponding to the radar signal by multiplying the reflection signal with a progressive phase rotation

[00002]$e^{-j.Math.\frac{\pi }{K}.Math.n}.$

In this context, K is defined such that a ratio

[00003]$\frac{\mathrm{Lc}}{K}$

A system and method for using coherent aggregated bandwidth over multiple transmissions for improved performance of precision guidance and positioning and of object tracking systems. Angular offset (Az/El) estimations are strongly impacted by interference between direct and (comparable amplitude) ground-reflected signals. In rough ground situations, there could be many ground reflected signals. Bandwidth aggregation as used herein achieves sharper range sidelobes and smaller magnitude multipath interference terms resulting in increasingly accurate interferometric results.

A radar system is disclosed for detecting profiles of objects, particularly in a vicinity of a machine work tool. The radar system uses a direct digital synthesiser to generate an intermediate frequency off-set frequency. It also uses an up-converter comprising a quadrature mixer, single-side mixer or complex mixer to add the off-set frequency to the transmitted frequency. It further uses a down-converter in the receive path driven by the off-set frequency as a local oscillator. The radar system enables received information to be transferred to the intermediate frequency. This in turn can be sampled synchronously in such a way as to provide a complex data stream carrying amplitude and phase information. The radar system is implementable with a single transmit channel and a single receive channel.
