New Opportunities in mm-Wave Radar and Imaging Slides

Abstract: Millimeter-wave frequency operation offers wide bandwidths, precise localization, and rich material interaction and penetration capability. Meeting consumer demand for enhanced safety and one of the essential sensing technologies for highly automated radar, 77GHz automotive radar is rapidly growing and evolving. Leveraging the dense integration and fast transistor performance of modern silicon processes, emerging MMICs are delivering higher performance in a smaller form factor and are also extending the mm-wave capabilities to other sensing markets. Radar’s next frontier is to significantly enhance resolution and move beyond simply detecting moving vehicles. This talk will cover these application trends and how they are enabled by emerging radar ICs.
