Station detection using frequency-diverse array signals
A positioning device and positioning method in which a first wireless signal is transmitted along a first signal path having a first signal path angle that changes relative to time; second wireless signal data representing a response of a wireless station to the first wireless signal is received; a third wireless signal is transmitted along a second signal path; and an assumption that an obstruction is between the wireless communication device and the wireless station is generated if the wireless communication device receives a response from the wireless station to the first wireless signal but does not receive a response from the wireless station to the third wireless signal; wherein the second signal path is a linear path.
System and Method to Reflect Radar Using Aircraft
The present disclosure is directed to scanning radar reflector systems, methods, and apparatuses; even more particularly to a system, method, and apparatus for scanning and reflecting a radar beam transmitted by a radar transmitter onboard an aerial vehicle with radar reflectors equipped on unmanned aerial vehicles. The radar reflection system may include one or more unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with a one or more axis gimbal upon which a radar reflector is mounted. A user may position the unmanned aerial vehicle and the radar reflector to target a specific region for radar scanning.
Non-Line-of-Sight Radar-Based Gesture Recognition
This document describes techniques and devices for non-line-of-sight radar-based gesture recognition. Through use of the techniques and devices described herein, users may control their devices through in-the-air gestures, even when those gestures are not within line-of-sight of their device's sensors. Thus, the techniques enable users to control their devices in many situations in which control is desired but conventional techniques do permit effective control, such as to turn the temperature down in a room when the user is obscured from a thermostat's gesture sensor, turn up the volume on a media player when the user is in a different room than the media player, or pause a television program when the user's gesture is obscured by a chair, couch, or other obstruction.
OBJECT RECOGNITION VIA INDIRECT SIGNAL REFLECTION
A control system is suitable for use in a motor vehicle and is configured and intended for detecting a position and/or a speed of an object in the surroundings of the host motor vehicle according to determined objects and/or according to driving-related information concerning other motor vehicles, based on surroundings data from at least one surroundings sensor situated on the host motor vehicle and provided to the control system. Based on these surroundings data, an object in the surroundings of the host motor vehicle is detected, and a virtual position and/or a virtual speed are/is associated with this object. The virtual position and/or speed associated with the object are/is adapted based on the driving-related information concerning another motor vehicle and/or based on driving-related information concerning the host motor vehicle, in order to determine an instantaneous position and/or an instantaneous speed of the object.
