A new multi-target detection for vehicle radar

A new vehicular radar model named as Double Stepped Frequency Pulse(DSFP) is presented to be able to detect both stationary and moving objects inside the observation area with short measurement time, high range and velocity resolution, and cost efficiency. DSFP transmits two stepped frequency pulses with a frequency shift and a time difference, its performance is better than conventional LFMCW radar on multi-targets with a shorter measurement time, higher resolution, and solves the Doppler shift and frequency spread over of SFP, in addition, DSFP has a simple structure based on pulse radar, so it's also very cost efficient.
