Fixed-Point And Floating-Point FMCW Radar Signal Processing With Tensilica DSPs
By Cadence - 25 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Automotive Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications are increasingly demanding radar modules with better capability and performance. These applications require sophisticated radar processing algorithms and powerful Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) to run them. Because these embedded systems have limited power and cost budgets, the DSP’s Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) needs t... » read more

Physics-Based Radar Modeling: Driving Toward Increased Safety
By Ansys - 07 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

Autonomous driving is revolutionizing the global automotive industry. With every new model, cars are smarter and more capable of independently responding to external signals like lane markings, road signs, other cars and pedestrians. However, formulating a correct response via artificial intelligence depends on the flawless performance of the car’s perception systems, including radar-ba... » read more

Auto Safety Tech Adds New IC Design Challenges
By John Koon - 06 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 1

The role of AI/ML in automobiles is widening as chipmakers incorporate more intelligence into chips used in vehicles, setting the stage for much safer vehicles, fewer accidents, but much more complex electronic systems. While full autonomy is still on the distant horizon, the short-term focus involves making sure drivers are aware of what's going on around them — pedestrians, objects, or o... » read more

Abstract "Automated driving can no longer be referred to as hype or science fiction but rather a technology that has been gradually introduced to the market. The recen... » read more

Radar For Automotive: How Far Can A Radar See?
By Marta Martinez Vazquez - 25 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 1

In the previous entries of this blog dedicated to automotive radar, the reason for using radar and the principle of operation of the frequency modulated continuous wave radar were presented. Now, we will focus on the performance of the system, starting with its maximum detection range: how far can we detect an obstacle ahead? We need to have as much foresight as possible, to be able to detect a... » read more

Radar For Automotive: Basics Of FMCW Radar
By Marta Martinez Vazquez - 28 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

Radar (acronym for Radio Detection and Ranging) uses radio waves to detect objects in the environment. It allows determining the distance (known as range), angular position (bearing), and velocity. Radar technology was developed for military use during World War II, but has now many civil applications, including air or marine traffic control, astronomy, ocean and meteorological monitoring, alti... » read more

Microstrip Antenna Design
By Cadence - 27 Jul, 2022 - Comments: 0

A significant performance element in communication and radar systems, as well as wireless devices, is the antenna, which may be defined as a transducer between a guided electromagnetic (EM) wave propagating along a transmission line, and an EM wave propagating in an unbounded medium (usually free space) or vice-versa.1 The antenna is required to transmit or receive EM energy with directional an... » read more

Data Fusion Scheme For Object Detection & Trajectory Prediction for Autonomous Driving
By Technical Paper Link - 23 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

New research paper titled "Multi-View Fusion of Sensor Data for Improved Perception and Prediction in Autonomous Driving" from researchers at Uber. Abstract "We present an end-to-end method for object detection and trajectory prediction utilizing multi-view representations of LiDAR returns. Our method builds on a state-of-the-art Bird's-Eye View (BEV) network that fuses voxelized featur... » read more

Radar For Automotive: Why Do We Need Radar?
By Marta Martinez Vazquez - 24 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Communications and sensing technologies have transformed the automotive industry. More and more, cars include features and systems to interact with their environment, gaining awareness of the surrounding space, networking with each other and with the infrastructure, and detecting possible sources of danger. We can consider that vehicles have acquired their own “senses”: they know where they... » read more
