Abstract
A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions that cause processors to obtain an N×M range matrix comprising radar data indexed by velocity and antenna and an M×S steering matrix comprising expected phases indexed by antenna and hypothesis angle. For each unique X×Y range slice corresponding to a particular set of X velocities, processors store the particular range slice in a first buffer. For each unique Y×Z steering slice corresponding to a particular set of Y antenna, processors store the particular steering slice in a second buffer. The processors perform beamforming operations on the range, steering, and intermediate slices, storing the result in a third buffer as the intermediate slice. After each steering and range slice for the particular set of X velocities has been iterated through, the processors store the intermediate slice as a beamforming slice for the particular set of X velocities and the hypothesis angles.
