Smart Radar System — Radars for Multiple Industries

In the Future Your Entire Car Could Be a Radar Antenna, Says IDTechEx

Radar miniaturization is one of the key trends that IDTechEx has identified in "Automotive Radar 2022-2042". There are several factors that are contributing towards this, such as moving from 24GHz to 77GHz which shrinks the antenna size. Or, transitioning from SiGe-BiCMOS based transceivers to Si-CMOS ones, which reduces the number of discrete computational components and shrinks the circuit board. So, with the size continuing to come down, IDTechEx asks, how small can it get?

Zadar Labs - Software Definied Radars

The automotive radar market is rife with innovative technologies coming from start-ups. Zadar's contribution to the space is a re-imaging of the boundary between software and hardware. New Si-CMOS based componentry is making radar's much more flexible and facilitating on-the-fly, over-the-air updates that can continuously improve the radar's performance over the lifetime of the vehicle.

Uhnder - digital code modulation automotive radar

Uhnder is a start up working on radar on chip technologies for automotive and other applications. Uhnder use a 28nm Silicon CMOS technology to construct a single chip with 192 virtual channels giving high imaging potential. Uhnder has also moved away from the widely frequency modulated continuous wave emission pattern in facour of digital code modulation, this brings increased performance and robustness to interference.

GenesInk

GenesInk is a French SME that offers a range of conductive and semiconducting inks based on nanoparticles that are synthesized in-house. Targeted applications include EMI shielding, Human-Machine Interface, conductive busbars, antennas, sensors and transport layers in organic semiconducting devices. IDTechEx caught up with GenesInk to find out about the latest developments.

NXP - automotive radar components

NXP are one of the largest suppliers of semiconductor products in the world. One of the ways it contributes to ADAS and autonomous automotive technologies is through its radar components. IDTechEx spoke to NXP about current technology and future trends in radar components at the 2021 ITS World Congress in Hamburg

Quad Industries

Quad Industries is a Belgian contract manufacturer of printed electronics that also offers product development services. This profile is based on a presentation given by Quad Industries but hosted by IMEC as part of its 'Europractice webinar series', and includes details of some application examples.

Continental - automotive radar and LiDAR suppliers

Continental are one of the largest automotive tier 1 suppliers, and one of the largest suppliers of radar for ADAS applications such as adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency braking. IDTechEx spoke to Continental at ITS World Congress 2021 in Hamburg.
