    Abstract: A method for interference reduction in a stationary radar unit of a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) type is provided. A sequence of beat signals is received, and a reference beat signal is calculated as an average or a median of one or more of the beat signals in the sequence. By comparing a difference between a beat signal and the reference beat signal, or a derivative of the difference, to one or more thresholds, a segment which is subject to interference is identified. The segment of the beat signal is replaced by one or more of a corresponding segment of an adjacent beat signal in the sequence, and a corresponding segment of the reference beat signal.

    Abstract: A method for producing an interference reduced radar image comprises receiving a measured sequence of beat signals; identifying one or more interference segments within the measured sequence of beat signals, an interference segment being a segment subject to an interference; doctoring the measured sequence of beat signals by creating a doctored representation of the measured sequence of beat signals in the form of a matrix Y; creating a doctoring mask representing the doctoring of the measured sequence of beat signals, the doctoring mask being a matrix M; and estimating a reconstructed range-doppler image {circumflex over (X)} from Y and M, wherein the reconstructed range-doppler image is a range-doppler image of Y which is deconvolved using M; such that doctoring the measured sequence of beat signals at least partially removes interference effects and estimating a reconstructed range-doppler image at least partially removes image artefacts created by the doctoring.

    Abstract: A Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) master (110) and method therein for transferring data to a peripheral device in a data communication and processing system (100) are disclosed. The SPI master (110) comprises a memory (111) comprising a list of packets, each packet comprises data associated with a time parameter indicating at which time the data is to be transferred to the peripheral device. The time parameter is configurable. The SPI master further comprises a serial transmit and receive unit (112) to transfer the data in the list at a time according to the time parameter associated with the data.
