Radar device for vehicle, controlling method of radar device and radar system for vehicle
The present disclosure relates to a vehicle radar device, a controlling method thereof, and radar system. A radar device according to an embodiment includes a transceiver being controlled to transmit the transmission signal in an operating frequency band according to a selection mode among a plurality of frequency band modes and to receive the reception signal through the receiving antenna, and a mode selector dynamically determining one of the plurality of frequency band modes as the selection mode based on at least one of a target distance to the target and a maximum detection distance for each frequency band. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the distance resolution of the radar can be optimized by dynamically varying the frequency bandwidth linked with the maximum detection distance according to a target distance under specific driving conditions.
SENSOR AND ESTIMATING METHOD
A sensor includes a transmit antenna, a receive antenna, circuitry, and a memory. The transmit antenna includes N transmit antenna elements each transmitting a transmit signal. The receive antenna includes M receive antenna elements each receiving N receive signals including reflection signals reflected by an organism. The circuitry extracts a second matrix corresponding to a predetermined frequency range from an N×M first matrix representing propagation characteristics between each transmit antenna element and each receive antenna element calculated from the receive signals. The circuitry estimates the position of the organism by using the second matrix, and calculates a radar cross-section value with respect to the organism, based on the estimated position and the positions of the transmit antenna and the receive antenna. The circuitry then estimates the posture of the organism by using the calculated radar cross-section value and information indicating associations between radar cross-section values and postures of the organism.

Radar detection of moving object with waveform separation residual
A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar system for detecting a moving object is based on an explicit signal model. The explicit signal model accounts for waveform separation residuals by relating measurements of the virtual array to an auto-term including a Kronecker product of object-receiver signatures and transmitter-object signatures; and a cross-term including a Kronecker product of object-receiver signatures and transmitter-object residual signatures. The radar system uses a spatial MIMO object detector that is based on the explicit signal model to detect the moving object.
