A multichannel radar system comprising a set of antennas each receiving a sequence of chirps reflected from plurality of objects, a range detector generating a set of range bins for each chirp, a beam former operative to generate a set of dominant frequency components from a group of range bins picked from the set of range bins across the set of antennas, a nearness detector for separating the set of dominant frequencies into a first set of dominant frequencies and a second set of dominant frequencies, a frequency subtractor configured to shift the each dominant frequency in the first set of dominant frequencies by its phase by a first value to form a third set of phase shifted dominant frequencies, and a Doppler estimator estimating a Doppler frequency of the each dominant frequency in the set of dominant frequencies from the third set of phase shifted dominant frequencies and the second set of dominant frequencies.
