Short Abstract-Lens antennas are well suited for automotive radar sensors. The development of these kinds of antennas in the field of automotive radar applications is presented. Based on the given requirements for the associated radar sensor the development of the antenna is shown. Therefore a fast and accurate antenna simulation tool based on Geometric Optics (GO) and a field of view simulator has been developed. The simulation chain from simulating the antenna elements to the radar field of view is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
