  • Publication number: 20200150223
    Abstract: An ultra-wideband radar transceiver and an operating method thereof are provided. The ultra-wideband radar transceiver includes a receiving module. The receiving module includes an I/Q signal generator, a first sensing circuit and a second sensing circuit. The I/Q signal generator receives M consecutive echo signals and generates M consecutive in-phase signals and M consecutive quadrature-phase signals accordingly, wherein M is an integer greater than 1. The first sensing circuit is coupled to the I/Q signal generator to receive the M consecutive in-phase signals and is configured to perform integration and analog-to-digital conversion on the M consecutive in-phase signals to generate a first digital data. The second sensing circuit is coupled to the I/Q signal generator to receive the M consecutive quadrature-phase signals and is configured to perform integration and analog-to-digital conversion on the M consecutive quadrature-phase signals to generate a second digital data.

  • Publication number: 20200132804
    Abstract: A radar apparatus and a leakage correction method thereof are provided. The radar apparatus includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter includes a sinewave signal generator. The sinewave signal generator generates a sinewave signal. The receiver includes another sinewave signal generator and a correcting circuit. The receiver receives transmitting signals including the sinewave signal from the transmitter. The sinewave signal generator of the receiver generates another sinewave signal according to the amplitude of the transmitting signals or received transmitting signals. The correcting circuit corrects leakage situation on the received transmitting signals according to another sinewave signal. The phasor of sinewave form corresponding to the leakage situation relates to the phasor of another sinewave signal. Accordingly, the performance of receiver may be improved effectively.

  • Publication number: 20190379386
    Abstract: A moving object detection circuit for detecting movement information of a measured object. The moving object detection circuit includes a mixing circuit, an analog-to-digital conversion circuit, a mixing unit, and a distance detecting unit. The mixing circuit mixed the RF carrier signal and a first analog signal to generate a second analog signal. The first analog signal is generated by a signal reflected from the measured object. The analog-to-digital conversion circuit coupled to the mixing circuit for generating a digital signal according to the second analog signal. The mixing unit mixed an IF signal and a first/second IF carrier signal to generate a first/second signal. The distance detecting unit generated a detection result according to the first signal and the second signal. The detection result is corresponding to a distance between the measured object and the moving object detection circuit.

  • Publication number: 20190072640
    Abstract: A signal processing system includes a transmission module and a receiving module. The transmission module generates and transmits a transmitted radio frequency signal according to a data signal and a first spread vector. The transmission module includes a spread spectrum unit, a digital-to-analog converter and a mixer. The spread spectrum unit generates a spread spectrum signal according to the data signal and the first spread vector. The digital-to-analog unit generates an analog signal according to the spread spectrum signal. The mixer mixes the analog signal and a carrier signal so as to generate the transmitted radio frequency signal. The receiving module receives a received radio frequency signal and a second spread vector so as to generate a spectrum despread signal and generate object detection information data accordingly. The received radio frequency signal is generated by having the transmitted radio frequency signal reflected by a measured object.
