77 GHz ACC radar simulation platform

The development of a system simulation platform for adaptive cruise control (ACC) radar working at 77 GHz is presented. The simulation platform allows us to test different radar architectures, modulation formats and detection algorithms as well as to simulate different scenarios, which improves the decision-making before and during the hardware development.
