Abstract
Automotive radar interference problem between multiple radar sensors is investigated. Phase-coded frequency modulated continuous wave (PC-FMCW) radar structure with low sampling and processing power demands is introduced to blindly mitigate mutual interference. The interference resiliency of the proposed structure is evaluated and compared with the conventional frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) automotive radar. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach is more robust to both coherent and non-coherent interference types, allowing resilience to both external interference of radars but also the self-interference in the simultaneous multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission.
