Abstract
A radar sensing system including transmit antennas and receive antennas, transmitters, receivers, and a controller. The system further includes a transmit antenna switch selectively coupling each of the transmitters to a respective transmit antenna, and a receive antenna switch selectively coupling at least one receiver of the receivers to respective receive antennas. A quantity of receivers is different from a quantity of the receive antennas. The controller is operable to select a quantity of receivers to be coupled to receive antennas to realize a desired quantity of virtual receivers. The controller is operable to select an antenna pattern as defined by the selected quantity of receivers coupled to receive antennas.
