Abstract
A method and system to obtain a velocity measurement of a target detected by a radar system using an asymmetric Doppler spectrum includes a receive portion of the radar system to receive a reflected signal from the target. A mixer mixes the reflected signal with a shifted signal to obtain a mixed signal. The shifted signal is a shifted version of a transmitted signal that results in the reflected signal and the Doppler spectrum is defined by a frequency shift value of the shifted signal. A processor processes the mixed signal to obtain the velocity measurement.
