Introduction
Safety and comfort applications are addressed using Driver Assistance systems.
Radar based DA systems are already available for some luxury cars and heavy transport vehicles.
DA systems can handle several tasks such as collision avoidance, lane change assistance, parking assistance etc.
DA multi-sensor systems require complex algorithms and advanced digital hardwares.

What is Radar? The term Radar was coined in 1941.Radar: Radio detection and ranging.It is an electromagnetic sensor for the detection and location
of reflecting objects.Radar can measure range, angular direction, trajectory and
angular velocity of targets. Radar might be small enough to hold in the palm of one
hand or large enough to occupy the space of many football fields.
Radar targets might be aircrafts , ships, missiles, land features, underground features, spacecrafts, planets etc.

Principle of operation
A radio transmitter emits an electromagnetic pulse and waits for the echo.
A common waveform radiated by a radar is a series of relatively narrow, rectangular like pulses.
The echo signal (reflected signal) is received and processed by the receiver part.
Each reflection scales the amplitude of the wave down by a factor.
Echoes from targets consist of scaled and shifted (or delayed) versions of the originally transmitted pulse.

Radar Limiting factors Beam path and range : Radar beam follows a curved
path in the atmosphere due to the variations of the refractive index of the air.
Noise: Internal & external sources of noise. Interference : Unwanted signals affect the operation.
Natural& Manmade. Jamming: radio frequency signals originating from
sources outside the radar, transmitting in the radar's frequency and thereby masking targets of interest.
Clutter: radio frequency (RF) echoes returned from targets which are uninteresting to the radar operators.

Radar Signal processingDSP techniques are used to extract informations about the
target. Radar signal processor separates the desired signal from
unwanted signals. At the transmitter end, it generates and shapes the
transmission pulses, controls the antenna beam pattern. At the receiver, DSP performs many complex tasks, including
STAP (space time adaptive processing) - the removal of clutter, and beam forming .
Radar signal processing techniques: Moving target indication, Pulse Doppler, Moving target detection, Constant false alarm rate etc.
