TARGET DETECTION IN RAINFALL AND SNOWFALL CONDITIONS USING MMWAVE RADAR

摘要

A radar system includes a radio frequency (RF) circuit to generate a transmit signal and to receive a corresponding receive signal from a target during rainfall or snowfall conditions, and a signal processing circuit coupled to the RF circuit to generate an adaptive filter threshold in response to the rainfall or snowfall conditions, and to generate a valid target signal in response a portion of the receive signal above the adaptive filter threshold.
