Abstract :
A novel antenna array scheme BTSM is proposed where time-space multiplexing technology is used and advantages of panorama and detail modes are combined. Compared with conventional MAA, this array has high capability for multi-target detection, smaller size, lower cost and smaller computation. BTSM FMCW radar systems will allow lane prediction and the classification of objects, thus making possible the intelligent interpretation of traffic scenes.
