Multifunctional and compact 3D FMCW MIMO radar system with rectangular array for medium-range applications

Ever since the era of autonomous systems started, multisensor platforms have become a key topic in aerospace, automotive, and robotics industries. Multifunctional systems integrate more than one sensor and/or actuator in one device and are capable of creating synergies between them. As a consequence, their performance is superior compared to single-sensor systems, for different reasons [1]-[3].
