Patents by Inventor Wouter Keijer

Wouter Keijer has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Radar based system and method for detection of an object and generation of plots holding radial velocity data, and system for detection and classification of unmanned aerial vehicles, UAVs
    Patent number: 12189020
    Abstract: A Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave, FMCW, radar system is provided. The radar system comprises one or more antennas configured to transmit and receive FMCW radar wave signals for scanning for objects within a full circular detection coverage range, and processing circuitry configured to provide scan data based on transmitted and received FMCW radar signals and azimuth position of the antenna(s).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 29, 2022
    Date of Patent: January 7, 2025
    Assignee: ROBIN RADAR FACILITIES BV
    Inventors: Wouter Keijer, Gerben Pakkert
  • RADAR BASED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTION OF AN OBJECT AND GENERATION OF PLOTS HOLDING RADIAL VELOCITY DATA, AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES, UAVS
    Publication number: 20220413121
    Abstract: A Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave, FMCW, radar system is provided. The radar system comprises one or more antennas configured to transmit and receive FMCW radar wave signals for scanning for objects within a full circular detection coverage range, and processing circuitry configured to provide scan data based on transmitted and received FMCW radar signals and azimuth position of the antenna(s). In a first aspect, the processing circuitry is configured to generate first type radar plots, where each first type radar plot holds range, radial velocity and return energy data for one or more detected objects, and configured to generate second type radar plots, where each second type radar holds azimuth, range and return energy data for one or more detected objects.

The processing circuitry is configured to generate first type radar plots that holds range, radial velocity and return energy data for one or more detected objects, and second type radar plots that holds azimuth, range and return energy data for one or more detected objects. The processing circuitry is also configured to generate full data type radar plots by combining first and second type radar plots having corresponding range data, whereby each full data type radar plot holds azimuth, range, radial velocity and return energy data for one or more detected objects.
