A vehicle FMCW Doppler radar system (3) and related method using transmitter arrangement (4), a receiver arrangement (7) and at least one control unit (15). The radar system (3) is arranged to transmit signals (11), to receive reflected signals (12), and to obtain a plurality of measure results from the received reflected signals (12) along a main field of view (10) during at least two radar cycles where each radar cycle including a plurality of FMCW ramps. For each radar cycle, the control unit (15) is arranged to form a spectrum density map (30) from measuring points (14) along the main field of view (10), where each measure result results in a measuring point (14). The control unit (15) is arranged to combine at least two spectrum density maps to form a combined spectrum density map.
A vehicle FMCW, Doppler radar system comprising, a transmitter arrangement, a receiver arrangement and at least one control unit, the radar system being adapted to be mounted in a vehicle, where the transmitter arrangement includes a transmitter antenna arrangement for transmitting a transmitted signal, and the receiver arrangement includes a receiver antenna arrangement arranged for receiving a reflected signal, the radar system being arranged to obtain a plurality of measure results from a plurality of reflected signals along a main field of view during at least two radar cycles where each of the radar cycles forms a plurality of FMCW ramps, for each of the radar cycles, the control unit is arranged to form a spectrum density map from a plurality of measuring points along the main field of view, where the control unit is configured to combine at least two of the spectrum density maps to form a combined spectrum density map.
A method for a vehicle FMCW, Doppler radar system that is for use in a vehicle, where the method comprises the steps of:
