Abstract
Power saving techniques for radar-based proximity sensing can include conducting proximity scans with a radar system in an omnidirectional proximity sensing mode in which signals are transmitted without directionality. Once an object is detected within a threshold proximity, the radar system can then switch to a directional proximity sensing mode to provide accurate directional detection capabilities in a desired field of view (FOV).
