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)
