This course is no longer offered! Students who want to get an insight into radar signal processing can still get the material and code for this PÜL. However, there will be no supervision, nor grading.
The task is to apply methods from statistical signal processing to radar signals in order to estimate the distances, the velocities as well as the angles of surrounding objects. Thereby you will create a complete radar signal processing chain, which could be used in automobiles.
Modern automobiles are already equipped with radar systems. Thereby comfort functions like for example Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) can be offered. ACC refers to a system, which adjusts the own speed accordingly to the preceding cars. The radar systems are also used as security systems, e.g. they warn the driver of critical situations.
The goal of this course is to solve a challenging practical task from statistical signal processing while working in a team of two or three students. You will acquire and apply methods to real problems, based on simulated and measured data. Finally the results will be documented in a report (in english or german) and presented in a correct and understandable way. The methods you learn are also used in many other fields, e.g. audio signal processing and image processing of medical data, like computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance tomography (MRT).
