Abstract

A radar system for a vehicle includes: a processing device having multiple transmit outputs and multiple receive inputs; a main transmit antenna to transmit main radar waves essentially parallel to a road, and coupled to the processing device via a first transmit output; a main receive antenna to receive reflections of the main radar waves off objects, and coupled via a first receive input; a first street condition monitoring (SCM) transmit antenna to transmit first polarized radar waves essentially directed to the road at a first polarization, and coupled via a second transmit output; and a first SCM receive antenna to receive, at the first polarization, reflections of the polarized radar waves off the road, and coupled via a second receive input. The system can include second SCM transmit and receive antennas coupled via a third transmit output and a third receive input and operating at a second polarization.
