The vision of this project is to design, engineer, and experimentally demonstrate a revolutionary wireless transmitter and receiver system that provides a simple yet automated approach for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Radar approaches are employed and the proposed system can also assist with the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) wirelessly. Improvements in terms of efficiency and performance as well as reduced system complexity and cost are anticipated when compared to the conventional. The envisioned system is fully compatible with CMOS and radar technologies for ADAS and brings substantial benefits in terms of safety, convenience, low-cost implementation, and robustness, and when compared to more conventional systems and where Multiple-Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna systems are not employed. In addition, the proposed radar system can significantly increase the accuracy and detection time of road hazards and lane departures for vehicles, while also, assisting drivers with blind spot monitoring, lane changes, and cruise control. The proposed and disruptive radar technology is also a significant advancement from conventional monitoring sensor systems as signals can be processed in real-time and then down converted for digital output display to the driver as needed. Design considerations are to be made for safety, efficiency in the airlink, smart aperture control for efficient focusing and target tracking as well as 2D beam scanning with high angular resolution for proper target characterization.

该项目的愿景是设计、设计和实验演示一种革命性的无线发射器和接收器系统，该系统为高级驾驶员辅助系统(ADAS)提供一种简单但自动化的方法。采用了雷达方法，拟议的系统还可以帮助电动汽车(EVS)无线充电。与传统方法相比，预计在效率和性能方面的改进以及系统复杂性和成本的降低。设想的系统与用于ADAS的CMOS和雷达技术完全兼容，在安全性、便利性、低成本实施和稳健性方面带来了实质性的好处，与更传统的系统相比，在没有使用多输入多输出(MIMO)天线系统的情况下。此外，拟议的雷达系统可以显著提高车辆道路危险和车道偏离的准确性和检测时间，同时还可以帮助司机进行盲点监控、车道变更和巡航控制。与传统的监测传感器系统相比，拟议的颠覆性雷达技术也是一个重大进步，因为信号可以实时处理，然后进行下变频，以便根据需要向驾驶员显示数字输出。在设计上要考虑安全、空中链路的效率、用于有效聚焦和目标跟踪的智能孔径控制以及用于正确描述目标特征的具有高角度分辨率的2D波束扫描。
