  • Patent number: 11922706
    Abstract: A driver monitoring system of a vehicle includes: a camera configured to capture an image of a driver on a driver's seat within a passenger cabin of the vehicle; a gaze module configured to determine a gaze vector based on a direction of pupils of the driver in the image; an area module configured to determine an area on a vertical plane in front of the driver based on a road in front of the vehicle; a location module configured to determine a location on the vertical plane where the gaze vector intersects the vertical plane; and a monitor module that determines whether the location on the vertical plane where the gaze vector intersects the vertical plane is within the area on the vertical plane.

  • Publication number: 20230040147
    Abstract: A method for operating a radar system (210) in a vehicle (201), the method including establishing a wireless communication link (245) to a radio base station (250) in a wireless communication network (260), requesting a time-frequency resource (420, 430) for communicating with a network node (270) via the radio base station (250), receiving a transmission grant from the radio base station (250) for communicating with the network node (270) using the time-frequency resource (420, 430), transmitting a communications signal (245) in the time-frequency resource, and transmitting a radar signal (235) in the time-frequency resource.

  • Publication number: 20220317240
    Abstract: A radio transceiver for communicating with one or more transceiver equipped targets, the transceiver including; a transmitter for transmitting radio signals in a transmit frequency band, wherein the transmitter is arranged to transmit a data signal in case a transceiver equipped target is present and to transmit a dummy signal in case a transceiver equipped target is not present, a receiver for receiving radio signals in a receive frequency band, and a detector for detecting backscattered radio signals in the transmit frequency band, wherein the detector is arranged to estimate a distance to at least one target object based on the backscattered radio signals.
