One approach to achieving this is through a distributed network of radar sensors, operating in homogeneous or heterogeneous configurations, strategically positioned to provide increased coverage and visibility in otherwise blind regions. Such a multiperspective sensing network, complemented with multimodal signal processing, can significantly improve the angular resolution of the radar, delivering high-fidelity scene imagery essential for region classification and path planning. This study presents a methodology for multimodal and multiperspective sensing using heterogeneous radar sensors, utilizing Doppler beam sharpening (DBS) within multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radars to enhance the resolution and coverage. Traditional frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW)-MIMO radars, currently the most widely used configuration, are prone to Doppler aliasing, limiting the field of view (FoV) in DBS and MIMO-DBS processing. To address this limitation, the effective FoV in multiperspective image is extended to that provided by the radar's physical aperture. The proposed framework is validated using 77-GHz radar chipsets in both automotive and maritime conditions, with sensors mounted in front-looking, corner-looking, and side-looking orientations.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Flexible and Ecofriendly Keypad Based on Paper and Pencil(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2023-11) Er, Sahane Firdevs; Kalabey, Nurefsan; Hah, DooyoungPencil-on-paper electronics has gained growing interests as cost-effective, ecofriendly, flexible, and light-weight devices for various applications. In this letter, a flexible keypad employing pencil-on-paper capacitive touch sensors is presented. Spiral-type interdigitated sensors are interconnected via steel threads as well as graphite paths to constitute a ten-button keypad. Passivation of the sensors by means of acrylic paint coating works as protection against deterioration from bending, folding, and extended usage. Backing of the keypad with silicone provides extra durability. Sensor reading is administered by Arduino boards. The same manufacturing method is used to scale up the system to a 44-button keyboard. Functionalities of both systems are successfully demonstrated, and effectiveness of the passivation is verified.
