  • Publication number: 20240080430
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system (10) for imaging a body (11) of a person. The system (1) comprises a sensor unit (12) configured to capture first imaging data of the body, wherein the sensor unit (12) comprises an optical camera and/or an infrared camera and/or an acoustic imaging sensor; an electromagnetic, EM, wave scanner (14) configured to capture second imaging data of the body, wherein the EM wave scanner comprises a plurality of antennas (15) which are configured to transmit EM radiation in a mm and/or cm range towards the body (11), and to receive a reflection of said EM radiation from the body (11); and a processing unit (16) which is configured to process the first imaging data and the second imaging data and to generate a three-dimensional image (33) of the body (11) based on said processing.

  • Publication number: 20230341533
    Abstract: A LiDAR test system for testing a LiDAR device under test is described. The LiDAR test system includes an optical module and a target simulator. The LiDAR device under test has a predetermined field of view. The optical module is configured to redirect a LiDAR signal emitted by the LiDAR device under test from a predetermined portion of the field of view to the target simulator, wherein the predetermined portion is adaptable. The target simulator includes a receiver configured to receive the LiDAR signal redirected by the optical module. The target simulator includes a manipulation unit configured to manipulate the received LiDAR signal, thereby generating a manipulated LiDAR signal. The target simulator further includes an emitter configured to emit the manipulated LiDAR signal.

  • Publication number: 20230305107
    Abstract: The invention relates to a radar test system (10) for testing a device-under-test, DUT (11), comprising an antenna array (13), wherein the antenna array (13) comprises: at least two RX antennas (RX1-4) having a different antenna polarization and at least one TX antenna (TX1-4), or at least two TX antennas (TX1-4) having a different antenna polarization and at least one RX antenna (RX1-4). The radar test system (10) further comprises a selection module (15) configured to select one RX antenna and one TX antenna of the antenna array (13) and to connect the selected RX antenna with the selected TX antenna, wherein the selected RX antenna is configured to receive a radar signal from the DUT (11), and wherein the selected TX antenna is configured to transmit a response signal to the DUT (11).

  • Publication number: 20230128858
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a multistatic radar system and a method for a spatially resolved detection of an object under test. The multistatic radar system includes an at least two-dimensional multistatic array of antenna elements having an at least partially shared coverage area. At least one data processing circuit is coupled to the array. Analog and/or digital beamforming is performed thereby obtaining at least one image of the object under test at least partially being located within the shared coverage area. Processing the image obtained is used to resolve at least one scattering center of the object under test. A spatially resolved scattering center distribution is determined based on the image obtained.

  • Publication number: 20220107389
    Abstract: A radar target simulator with no lower target distance limitation and continuous distance emulation is provided. Said radar target simulator comprises a receiving unit configured to receive a radar signal from a radar under test and to provide a corresponding receive signal, and a ramp slope estimating unit. In this context, the ramp slope estimating unit is configured to track the ramp slope of the radar under test on the basis of the receive signal.
