Abstract
In this paper, we describe the design and layout of an automotive radar sensor demonstrator for 77 GHz with a SiGe chipset and a fully parallel receiver architecture which is capable of digital beamforming and superresolution direction of arrival estimation methods in azimuth. Additionally, we show measurement results of this radar sensor mounted on a test vehicle.
