  • Patent number: 12196843
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to techniques for implementing radar waveform diversity. A technique may involve a radar unit transmitting radar signals into an environment of a vehicle based on a code sequence that indicates a ramp direction and a phase shift for each pulse in a pulse used by the radar unit and receiving radar reflections from the environment. In some instances, the radar unit may leverage antennas in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) arrangement to further add diversity to transmissions according to spatial code in the code sequence. The technique can further involve using a demodulator to map the environment based on the radar reflections and controlling the vehicle based on the mapping. In some instances, the code sequence is received from a system that is wirelessly providing orthogonal code sequences to multiple emitters.

  • Patent number: 11644533
    Abstract: Example embodiments present radar units capable of operating in multiple polarizations. An example radar unit may include a set of transmission antennas and a set of reception antennas. Particularly, the transmission antennas may each be configured to transmit radar signals that radiate in one or more of four potential polarizations. The four polarizations can correspond to horizontal linear, vertical linear and slanted polarizations at approximately positive forty-five degrees and negative forty-five degrees from the horizontal plane. As such, the reception antennas of the radar unit may each be configured to receive reflected radar signals that are radiating in one of the four potential polarizations. The radar unit may further include an amplifier configured to cause one or multiple transmission antennas to selectively transmit between two or more of the four polarization channels.
