An antenna concept for direction of arrival estimation in azimuth and elevation is proposed for 77 GHz automotive radar sensors. This concept uses the amplitude information of the radar signal for the azimuth angle and the phase information for the elevation angle. The antenna consists of a combination of a series-fed-array structure with a cylindrical dielectric lens. This concept is implemented into a radar sensor based on SiGe MMICs for validation. A two- and a four-beam configuration are presented and discussed with respect to angular accuracy and ambiguities.

Avoiding collisions with other objects is one of the most basic safety tasks undertaken in the operation of floating vehicles. Addressing this challenge is essential, especially during unmanned vehicle navigation processes in autonomous missions. This paper provides an empirical analysis of the surface target detection possibilities in a water environment, which can be used for the future development of tracking and anti-collision systems for autonomous surface vehicles (ASV). The research focuses on identifying the detection ranges and the field of view for various surface targets. Typical objects that could be met in the water environment were analyzed, including a boat and floating objects. This study describes the challenges of implementing automotive radar sensors for anti-collision tasks in a water environment from the perspective of target detection with the application for small ASV performing tasks on the lake.
