Abstract
Examples disclosed herein relate to a beam steering vehicle radar for object identification. The beam steering vehicle radar includes a beam steering receive antenna having a plurality of antenna elements to generate a radiation beam comprising a main lobe and a plurality of side lobes, at least one guard band antenna to generate a guard band radiation beam, and a perception module coupled to the beam steering receive antenna to detect and identify a first object reflection in the radiation beam. The perception module has a monopulse module to determine a range and angle of arrival for the first object reflection and detect multiple objects upon determining an absence of a second object reflection in the guard band radiation beam.
