Publication number: 20260328935Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a highly accurate, low-latency pre-processing pipeline hardware architecture for RADAR images. In an embodiment, a method comprises: receiving a time-domain representation of a radar image of a scene, the representation including at least one object; determining a range to the at least one target based on a range frequency spectrum computed from the time-domain representation; determining a radial velocity of the at least one object based on a Doppler frequency spectrum computed from the time-domain representation; determining an azimuth angle of the at least one object based on the Doppler frequency spectrum; generating a data structure containing the range, radial velocity and azimuth angle; performing at least one machine learning process on contents of the data structure; and generating at least one control signal for controlling a vehicle based at least in part on a result of performing the machine learning process.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: October 22, 2026Inventors: Ting Wang, Shailendra Deva, Ken Power

Patent number: 7555570Abstract: An interfacing module connected to a network. A target network device connected to the network. An interfacing module is associated with a target network device. An interfacing module is coupled to a peripheral port of a target network device. Interfacing module identification data is stored in a memory portion of the target network device. The network address of the target network device is determined. The network address of the interfacing module is determined. At a remote location the network address of the target network device is used to read the interfacing module identification data from the memory portion of the target device via the network.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2007Date of Patent: June 30, 2009Assignee: Avocent Huntsville CorporationInventors: John Hickey, Ken Power, Martin McDonell
