Radar is cropping up everywhere in new car designs: sensing around the car to detect hazards and feed into decision making for braking, steering, and parking and in the cabin for driver and occupancy ...

FORVIA HELLA and NXP Semiconductors are collaborating on high-resolution automotive radar, the companies announced at CES in Las Vegas. The work centers on FORVIA HELLA’s next-generation ForWave7HD ...

Radar (acronym for Radio Detection and Ranging) uses radio waves to detect objects in the environment. It allows determining the distance (known as range), angular position (bearing), and velocity.

Automotive radar has become an indispensable technology in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and the evolution towards fully autonomous vehicles. By utilising millimetre wave signals, these ...

In the previous entries of this blog dedicated to automotive radar, the reason for using radar and the principle of operation of the frequency modulated continuous wave radar were presented. Now, we ...

A digitally calibrated, charge-pump phase-locked loop presented by imec at the recent ISSCC can generate high-quality FMCW signals for millimeter-wave radars with low power consumption... The 30% ...

NXP Semiconductors has claimed an industry-first 28-nm RFCMOS radar one-chip IC family for next-generation advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) systems. The SAF85xx ...

Self-driving technology is likened to training the autonomous vehicle (AV) to drive like humans – or hopefully better than humans. Just as humans rely on their senses and cognitive responses for ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

When the automobile industry really began to take off in the 1930s, radar was barely in its infancy, and there was no reason to think something that complicated would ever make its way into the ...
