A method for wirelessly synchronizing a radar detector to a radar transmitter includes wirelessly receiving a first instance of a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar signal directly emitted by the radar transmitter, determining a frequency slope change event in the FMCW radar signal using the first instance of the FMCW radar signal and temporally synchronizing the radar detector to the radar transmitter based on the frequency slope change event. Determining the frequency slope change event may include generating a frequency slope monitoring signal. In some embodiments, generating the frequency slope monitoring signal comprises mixing the first instance of the FMCW radar signal with a second instance of the FMCW radar signal. The second instance of the FMCW radar signal may be a reflected instance or a locally delayed instance of the first instance. A corresponding apparatus, computer readable medium and system are also disclosed herein.
