  • Patent number: 11105913
    Abstract: A RADAR control apparatus includes a range identifier configured to identify a scan range that is a radial distance from the range identifier, and a control unit configured to receive the scan range and cause a RADAR pulse generation unit to emit a RADAR pulse train that is a pattern of RADAR pulse waves including: a type of RADAR pulse wave; a number of each type of RADAR pulse wave; a RADAR pulse wave duration or RADAR pulse wave width; a RADAR pulse wave amplitude; a temporal spacing between each RADAR pulse wave; a sequential order for the type and the number of RADAR pulse waves; and/or at least one sector of space surrounding the RADAR pulse generation unit through which the RADAR pulse waves will propagate. The control unit is configured to continuously adapt the pattern of RADAR pulses in accordance with the received scan range.
