    摘要: Waveguide and/or antenna structures for use in RADAR sensor assemblies and the like. In some embodiments, the assembly may comprise a structure defining a waveguide groove on a first side of the structure and an antenna slot formed on a second side of the structure opposite from the first side. A thru-hole may extend through the structure between the antenna slot and the waveguide groove. The thru-hole may comprise an axis and a width measured between opposing sidewalls extending at least substantially perpendicular to the axis. The width may be less than a corresponding width of the waveguide groove.

    摘要: Waveguide and/or antenna structures for use in RADAR sensor assemblies and the like. In some embodiments, the assembly may comprise a waveguide block comprising a first surface on a first side of the waveguide block and a second surface on a second side of the waveguide block opposite the first side. One or more waveguides may be formed in the waveguide block. One or more antenna slots may be operably coupled with one or more of the waveguides. One or more auxiliary grooves may be positioned adjacent to at least one of the antenna slots and may mimic, or at least substantially mimic, at least one of the one or more antenna slots, such as in length and/or width.

    摘要: Waveguide and/or antenna structures for use in RADAR sensor assemblies and the like. In some embodiments, the assembly may comprise a waveguide groove extending along an elongated axis on a first side of a block and an antenna structure operably coupled with the waveguide groove. The antenna structure may comprise an antenna slot extending along the elongated axis on a second side of the block opposite from the first side and the antenna slots may be positioned and configured to deliver electromagnetic radiation from the waveguide groove therethrough. Some embodiments may further comprise one or more grooves extending adjacent to the antenna slot, such as opposing grooves extending adjacent to the antenna slot.

    摘要: A radar sensor includes a housing, cover, and a plurality of transmit and receive antennas. The housing includes a cavity retaining a processing board. The cover defines a radome having a recess into the cavity with two separate and connected areas. The transmit and receive antennas are positioned on the processing board, adjacent to, and separated by a gap from, the recess. The transmit antennas are configured to transmit RF signals through the first area of the recess. The receive antennas are configured to receive RF signals returning through the second area of the recess.
