March 12-14, 2019
Introduction
Radar as a technology is a corner stone of modern Driver
Assistance features and an essential part of future
Level 4 systems.
Modern, state of the art production radar
concepts today often revolve around Digital Beamforming
and multi transmit-multi-receive architectures.
Many of these are based on the time multiplexing
of transmitters in a so called (temporal) MIMO
configuration.
However, there are emerging technologies that
adopt different solutions for the creation of the radar
antenna aperture (physically and algorithmically).
These new technologies also impact the supply
chain (new designs/requirements for RF chipsets,
processing), how Tier 1’s can utilize such technology in
the extraordinarily cost constrained automotive world
(robustness, integration challenges) and the OEM, who
may now have more choices to make within the context of
a sensor set on a vehicle.
Workshop Goals
- This Workshop is intended to provide a platform to share, educate and update the community on such emerging technologies and to contrast them with current in-production solutions.
