Although traffic safety continues to improve overall, fatalities of vulnerable traffic participants
and pedal cyclists specifically have reached 30-year highs. While automotive radar sensors …

Commercial frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar systems are well-established
in the frequency range up to 100 GHz, with some exceptions operating in the D-band …

Radar networks can offer superior performance compared to individual sensors. However,
synchronization is crucial for realizing such a radar network coherently. Digital systems, in …

Although the SNR and thus the maximum range of FMCW radar systems benefit from high
output powers, they can conventionally be limited by the receiver linearity. As a solution, we …

This paper presents SiGe-based transmitter and receiver chips for a radio frequency identification
(RFID) frontend in the 61-GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) frequency band. …

This letter introduces a silicon–germanium (SiGe)-based subharmonic mixer (SHM)
optimized for THz radar applications, operating at a center frequency of 360 GHz with a 3-dB …

This work presents a static divide-by-16 in a 130-nm SiGe-BiCMOS technology, aiming to
demonstrate the technologies’ potential. A bias network followed by four divide-by-2 stages …

We present a harmonic radar system based on an RFID tag to improve traffic safety for outside
vehicles like pedal cyclists. The tag consists of a high gain amplifier chain focused on low …

Harmonic radar systems are highly effective at distinguishing specific targets from surrounding
clutter. Therefore, the reception of a tag response, conventionally at the second harmonic, …

Vulnerable road users have not been able to benefit equally from the improved traffic safety
supported by automotive sensors. In 2020 this culminated in traffic fatality highs of more than …
