BINAURAL AUTOMOBILE RADAR

The theoretical characteristics of a binaural radar have been used to optimize the collision estimation abilities for point target obstacles. Measurements with obstacles of small lateral extent are in good agreement with theory. Measurements with obstacles of large lateral extent do not agree with simple point target theory due to detection of different scattering centers by the two bistatic arrays of the binaural radar. Methods of minimizing this problem are discussed. /GMRL/
