Huawei’s 4D imaging radar employs a large antenna array of 12T24R (12 transmit channels and 24 receive channels), which is 24 times larger than the antenna configuration of conventional millimeter wave radar (3T4R). In addition to the range and speed measurement of conventional millimeter-wave radar, it has a unique capability to detect targets whose distance is visually obscured by light or rain, resulting in a significant performance improvement. In addition, the evolution of 4D dense point clouds like LiDAR will lead to a wealth of sensory enhancement applications such as environmental mapping, synthesis, and positioning. Moreover, the fusion of multiple radars at the point cloud level will enable more effective 360° detection around the vehicle to meet full-target, full-coverage, multi-condition, and all-weather sensing requirements.
