METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING RADAR SIGNAL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18107168 titled 'METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING RADAR SIGNAL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for transmitting and receiving radar signals using a radar sensor in an electronic device. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The method involves receiving a chirp signal from a radar sensor located outside the electronic device.
  • The radar sensor in the electronic device changes its operation mode from detection to reception based on the received chirp signal.
  • The radar sensor then receives a second chirp signal generated by the external radar sensor through its receiver.
  • Information about objects located near the electronic device is obtained based on the received second chirp signal.
  • The second chirp signal is generated using the first chirp signal and a response signal corresponding to the first chirp signal.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Automotive radar systems for collision avoidance and adaptive cruise control.
  • Industrial radar systems for object detection and monitoring in warehouses or manufacturing facilities.
  • Surveillance radar systems for perimeter security and intruder detection.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improved accuracy and range of radar detection by utilizing multiple radar sensors.
  • Efficient use of radar resources by dynamically changing the operation mode based on received signals.
  • Enhanced object detection and tracking capabilities by generating chirp signals and response signals.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased safety and reduced accidents by providing accurate information about objects in the proximity of the electronic device.
  • Improved efficiency and productivity in industrial settings by enabling better object detection and monitoring.
  • Enhanced security and surveillance capabilities by detecting and tracking intruders or potential threats.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of transmitting and receiving a radar signal is disclosed. The method includes: receiving a first chirp signal output by a second radar sensor located outside an electronic device, wherein the receiving is performed by a first radar sensor of the electronic device, changing an operation mode of the first radar sensor from a detection mode to a reception mode, based on the received first chirp signal, receiving a second chirp signal generated by the second radar sensor, through a receiver of the first radar sensor, according to the change to the reception mode, and obtaining information about at least one object located within a specified proximity of the electronic device, based on the received second chirp signal. The second chirp signal is generated based on the first chirp signal and a first response signal corresponding to the first chirp signal.
