Abstract
A radar sensor includes a flexible printed circuit board (PCB). A first antenna or antenna array is mounted on a first portion of the flexible PCB, and a second antenna or antenna array is mounted on a second portion of the flexible PCB. The first portion and the second portion of the flexible PCB are offset such that the first and second antennas/arrays have respective first and second fields-of-view (FOVs) that are offset from one another. The first and second antennas/arrays can be coupled to a same backend PCB that includes a hardware logic component. The hardware logic component is configured to receive, from the flexible PCB, radar data that is representative of the radar returns received by the first and second antennas/arrays. The hardware logic component processes the radar data to generate detections that are indicative of points on surfaces of objects in the first and second FOVs.
