  • Passive moving object detection system and method using signals transmitted by a mobile telephone station
    Patent number: 6930638
    Abstract: A passive object detection system (1) comprises first and second antennas (4, 6) and a processor (8). The first antenna (4) is adapted to receive a signal transmitted by a mobile telephone base station; the second antenna (6) is adapted to receive the signal transmitted by a mobile telephone base station (2) after it has been reflected off an object (3) and the processor compares the signal received from the mobile telephone base station with the signal reflected from the object to derive speed or position information relating to the object therefrom.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 25, 2002
    Date of Patent: August 16, 2005
    Assignee: Roke Manor Research Limited
    Inventors: Peter Gregory Lloyd, Gareth Liam Harris, Brian Phillip Stothard
  • Automotive radar systems
    Patent number: 6900755
    Abstract: An automobile radar which serves to provide data for cruise control or other systems in a host vehicle, comprising means for measuring radar boresight misalignment by detecting the presence of apparent variations in the spacing of stationary objects from the direction of motion of the host vehicle and utilizing such detection to compensate for any misalignment.
