  • Publication number: 20240134031
    Abstract: A system adaptively filters out a representation of an object from a radar frame captured by a radar device, where a maximum signal strength at zero velocity is obtained in a range bin comprising a detection of the object in range Doppler representations of a set of radar frames captured during a time period before the radar frame. A motion vector is obtained representing a determined magnitude and direction of motion of the radar device at the time when the radar frame was captured. The motion of the radar device is due to an oscillatory movement of the radar device. A range Doppler representation of the radar frame is produced and a direction vector representing a direction from the radar device to the object is determined. A radial relative velocity between the object and the radar device is determined based on the obtained motion vector and the determined direction vector.

  • Patent number: 11630183
    Abstract: A method for interference reduction between radar units. The method is performed by a radar unit and comprises: receiving one or more radar frames, wherein the one or more radar frames correspond to one or more respective time intervals during which the radar unit was activated to transmit and receive signals to produce data samples of the one or more radar frames; and determining whether the one or more radar frames have a higher presence of data samples that are subject to interference from other radar units in a first half of their corresponding time intervals than in a second, later, half of their corresponding time intervals. In case the presence is higher in the first half of their corresponding time intervals, a scheduled time interval of an upcoming radar frame to be produced by the radar unit is postponed, and otherwise it is advanced.

  • Patent number: 6370995
    Abstract: A holder for the detachable assembly of cutting tools includes a clamping mechanism, which has a piston axially movable by applying oil pressure on either of two opposite sides thereof. A projection of the piston includes a cone surface with a moderate cone angle arranged to co-operate with a wedge body which is self-locking in relation to the cone surface to keep the cutting tool clamped, even when oil pressure is relieved. In order to guarantee such self-locking, transverse grooves are provided in the cone surface enabling friction-reducing oil to be evacuated from the interface between the cone surface and an inner, partially cone-shaped surface on the wedge body.
