Abstract

RADAR sensors are used in many driver assistance systems. We could ask whether RADAR for automobiles is similar to RADAR used in aircraft or military applications. The answer would be yes and no: yes, because the basic physical principles are valid for all domains, and no, because the requirements are very different. Whereas sometimes the requirements are less ambitious, enabling new concepts to be implemented, in other aspects, the requirements are higher due to the more complex traffic environment. The fundamentals of RADAR technology laid out in this chapter give an understanding of how RADAR works in typical automotive applications and why principle limitations define the performance. At the end of the chapter, the current technology of automotive RADAR is demonstrated by examples from industry, including their specifications.
