Design Guide

Entry-level blind spot detection reference design using mmWave radar

Description

This reference design provides a foundation for corner radar applications to meet entry-level blind spot detection (BSD) requirements using the AWRL1432BOOST-BSD evaluation module. The design allows users to estimate and track the position (in the azimuthal plane) and velocity of objects up to 120m.

Features

  • Enables car manufacturers to meet entry-level blind spot detection (BSD) requirements using a single chip radar sensor
  • Detect and track objects (such as cars and trucks) up to 120 meters away with velocity of ±144 kilometers per hour (kmph)
  • Antenna azimuth field of view ±60º with azimuth angular resolution of approximately 20º
  • Demonstrates the following AWRL1432 capabilities:
    • Data compression
    • Max velocity extension using Chinese Remainder Theorem
    • 2D Tracking
  • Improves the customer development cycle (for example, hardware redesign and software effort)
