Simulation of pulse-echo radar for vehicle vontrol and SLAM University of Antwerp
Pulse-echo sensing is the driving principle behind biological echolocation as well as biologically-inspired sonar and radar sensors. In biological echolocation, a single emitter sends a self-generated pulse into the environment which reflects off objects. A fraction of these reflections are captured by two receivers as echoes, from which information about the objects, such as their position in 3D space, can be deduced by means of timing, ...
