Abstract
Thermal management and shielding techniques for a radar device of a vehicle, the radar device having a radar transceiver circuit and a radar-transmissive radome, include a housing formed of a thermally-conductive plastic material and configured to receive and provide shield grounding to the radar transceiver circuit, and a metal layer applied to an inner surface of the housing to provide for thermal spreading of heat energy generated by the radar transceiver circuit.
