Self-Calibration of a 3-D-Digital Beamforming Radar System for Automotive Applications With Installation Behind Automotive Covers

Antenna Array Thinning Through Quantum Fourier Transform

“…is the IQFT of the input quantum state vector |A (i.e., |w = IQF T {|A }) where w n (n = 0, ..., N − 1) is a normalized complex value equal to w n = wn w , w n being derived by A as in (7) through IDFT. However, it worth pointing out that there is no way to retrieve/measure/observe the (complex) values of the N entries of w ( w = { w n ; n = 0, ..., N − 1}) at the output of the IQFT operation (i.e., from |w ), but only the probability p n (n = 0, ..., N − 1) that the output quantum state vector |w would be equal to the n-th (n = 0, ..., N − 1) L-qubit |a n .…”

Reducing the Radar Cross Section of Microstrip Arrays Using AMC Structures for the Vehicle Integration of Automotive Radars

“…The thickness of the bumper sample is 2.8 mm, and it is metallic silver painted. The distance between the sample and the AUT is 13 cm, which is the minimum distance that can be used in the available measurement setup; this is however not a limitation since in a real scenario the radar sensor is usually mounted a few centimeters away from the bumper [18]. The distance between the horn antenna and the AUT is 28 cm, and thus the measurements have been taken in this case in the near field of the AUT.…”

Parametric Electromagnetic Analysis of Radar-Based Advanced Driver Assistant Systems

“…Simulation of radio wave propagation through the radome provides knowledge of the latter’s precise influence on the system accuracy and performances. Thus, an important issue concerns the effect of bumpers on the radar performances, topic that attracted great interest [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. In the just referred works the coupling radar-radome effects (e.g., attenuation, signal pollution, …) was investigated but a parametric numerical modeling was not considered.…”
