Abstract: A radar system is described for use in vehicular applications. The radar system is particularly suited to backup warning systems and side-object warning systems. The radar minimies many of the problems found in the prior art by providing programmable delays and programmable gain. The radar uses a range search algorithm to detect and sort targets at various ranges within the field of view of the radar. Each target range corresponds to a particular delay and gain setting. The radar searches for targets at the various ranges by running a target search algorithm. For each target range, the search algorithm causes the proper time delay and gain setting. Targets within the selected range are detected and catalogued. A display is used to warn the driver of the vehicle of the presence of targets at the various ranges. The warning may be visual and/or audible.
