Radar interference mitigation using a pseudorandom offset

Abstract:

An apparatus is disclosed for radar interference mitigation using a pseudorandom offset. The apparatus includes an antenna array and a wireless transceiver. The wireless transceiver is coupled to the antenna array and is configured to transmit, via the antenna array, a radar transmit signal based on at least one pseudorandom offset. The wireless transceiver is also configured to receive, via the antenna array, at least a portion of another radar transmit signal from another apparatus. The wireless transceiver is additionally configured to receive, via the antenna array, a radar receive signal that includes a portion of the radar transmit signal that is reflected by an object. At a given time, a frequency of the radar receive signal is different than a frequency of the radar transmit signal based on the at least one pseudorandom offset.
