The invention relates to a power adjustment method and apparatus, and a human body security check device. An adjustable power attenuator is provided in a millimeter wave signal transmitting link of the millimeter wave transceiver. The method comprises: obtaining a current humidity value by detecting the ambient humidity around the millimeter wave transceiver using a preset humidity sensor; determining a target power attenuation value of the adjustable power attenuator according to the current humidity value, the sum of the target power attenuation value and a power attenuation value caused to a millimeter wave signal by the ambient humidity being a constant value; and controlling the adjustable power attenuator to adjust its power attenuation value to be consistent with the target power attenuation value. The solution can reduce radiation hazard while ensuring the definition of an image.

Example embodiments describe a radar sensor, whereby the radar sensor comprises a pair of continuous wave (CW) radar transceivers that each has a leaky wave antenna that are provided adjacent to each other. Each CW radar transceiver comprises a microwave frequency transmission circuit configured to transmit and receive signals reflected off a nearby object. The transmitted and received signals are then processed by the radar sensor to determine a relative displacement between the detected object and the radar sensor. This determined relative displacement may then be used with machine learning techniques to identify dynamic gestures made within the radar sensor's range of detection.

An example radar system includes a transmission array and a reception array, each aligned as a linear array. The radar system also includes a transmitter configured to cause transmission of radar signals having a center frequency by the transmission array. The radar system also includes a receiver configured to receive radar signals having the center frequency that are received by the reception array. The radar system also includes a processor configured to process received radar signals from the receiver, and adjust the center frequency from a first center frequency to a second center frequency. The adjusting of the center frequency from the first center frequency to the second center frequency causes the frequency-dependent transmission radiation pattern of the transmission array to tilt in a first direction and the frequency-dependent reception radiation pattern of the reception array to tilt in an opposite direction from the first direction.

The amplitude tapering function comprises a combination of a least two disparate amplitude tapering functions.

In one implementation, an antenna array has a plurality of antenna element, each of which is configured to apply a phase shift to a signal. A beam steering controller is configured to steer a main beam of the antenna by controlling the phase shifts applied by the antenna elements. In addition, the beam steering controller also is configured to detect a failure of an antenna element and, in response to detecting the failure, disable the failed antenna element and modify the phase shifts applied by remaining ones of the antenna elements.

The present disclosure relates to a station apparatus, including an Ultra-wideband (UWB) module to receive a first UWB signal transmitted by a moving robot, and a control unit to calculate a reception angle of the first UWB signal upon the reception of the first UWB signal, and control the UWB module to transmit a second UWB signal, including a direction value determined based on the reception angle, to the moving robot for return of the moving robot.
