Abstract

A MIMO detector device useful for automated vehicles is described. An illustrative example embodiment of a detector device (22) includes a receiver (40) configured to receive radiation (28) comprisinga plurality of codes. Each of the codes is associated with one of a plurality of transmissions (26A, 26B) and each of the codes is distinct from the other codes. A processor (42) is configured to obtain information corresponding to at least one predetermined phase code spectrum (56) for the codes, determine (58) a demodulated signal spectrum (60) of radiation received by the at least one receiver, determine (64) at least one characteristic of the determined demodulated signal spectrum (60), adjust (66) the at least one predetermined phase code spectrum (56) based on the determined characteristic to generate an adjusted phase code spectrum (68), and refine (70) the determined demodulated signal spectrum (60) based on the adjusted phase code spectrum (68) to generate a refined demodulated signal spectrum (72).

Description

Background technique [0001] Innovations in electronics and technology have made it possible to incorporate various advanced features on autonomous vehicles. Various sensing technologies have been developed for detecting objects or monitoring the surrounding environment in the vicinity or path of a vehicle. Such systems are useful for, for example, parking assist, lane departure detection, and cruise control adjustment features. [0002] More recently, automated vehicle features have become possible allowing autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle control. Sensors for such systems may incorporate lidar (light detection or ranging) or radar for detecting objects or another vehicle in the vehicle's path or otherwise close to the vehicle. Depending on the approach speed, cruise control settings may be automatically adjusted to reduce the vehicle's speed based on, for example, detecting another vehicle in the vehicle's path. [0003] One proposal to improve such sensing techniques...
