Abstract

A vehicle radar system, apparatus and method use a radar control processing unit to generate a target response signal in at least a first dimension from compressed radar data signals and to perform cell-averaging constant false alarm rate (CA-CFAR) target detection by convolving the target response signal with a weighted kernel window signal in a frequency domain using a Fast Fourier Transform hardware accelerator, an element-wise multiplier, and an Inverse Fast Fourier Transform hardware accelerator to generate an output signal having a sign that indicates a target detection decision.
