Abstract :
A multstatic frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar system is under development for use in the control system of autonomous vehicles. The aim of the system, named Colarado, is the 3D location of obstacles in the surrounding environment. In this paper a laboratory prototype system version, the demonstrator, is described and current results are presented.
