Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes, by a computing system of a vehicle, providing one or more instructions configured to cause a first radar antenna to broadcast a modulated radar chirp signal. The modulated radar chirp signal may include data. The method includes receiving a first return signal that corresponds to the modulated radar chirp signal reflected off of an object in an environment. The method includes calculating a location for the object using the first return signal. The method includes receiving, from a second radar antenna, a second return signal indicating that the modulated radar chirp signal was received by the second radar antenna.
