Abstract
Examples disclosed herein relate to a beam steering vehicle radar for object identification. The beam steering radar includes a beam steering receive antenna having a plurality of antenna elements to receive radar return signals, a LNA circuit having a plurality of LNAs, each LNA coupled to each element in the beam steering receive antenna to apply a gain to the return signals to generate amplified return signals, wherein gains of LNAs coupled to center antenna elements are higher than gains of LNAs coupled to edge antenna elements, and a phase shifter circuit to apply a plurality of phase shifts to the amplified return signals.
