A Joint Extrinsic Calibration Tool for Radar, Camera and Lidar

We address joint extrinsic calibration of lidar, camera and radar sensors. To simplify calibration, we propose a single calibration target design for all three modalities, and implement our approach in an open-source tool with bindings to Robot Operating System (ROS). Our tool features three optimization configurations, namely using error...

A 24GHz Radar Receiver in CMOS

This thesis investigates the system design and circuit implementation of a 24GHz-band short-range radar receiver in CMOS technology. The propagation and penetration properties of EM wave offer the possibility of non-contact based remote sensing and through-the-wall imaging of distance stationary or moving objects. The feasibility of realizing...

Waveform Optimization for Compressive-Sensing Radar Systems

Compressive sensing (CS) provides a new paradigm in data acquisition and signal processing in radar, based on the assumptions of sparsity of an unknown radar scene, and the incoherence of the transmitted signal. The resolution in the conventional pulse-compression radar is foreseen to be improved by the implementation of CS. An unknown sparse...
