Application: Target detection method and system (Patent ID: US20240053461A1)

The patent by NXP Semiconductors NV describes a method for detecting a target using ultra-wideband (UWB) radar and ranging operations. The method involves generating detection outputs based on the results of these operations, which are then analyzed by a processing unit to determine the target movement. The system includes a first detection unit for radar operations, a second detection unit for ranging operations, and a processing unit for decision-making based on the outputs.

The patent also covers the implementation of the detection units within the same device, the use of machine learning algorithms for generating detection outputs, and the determination of distances between the detection unit and UWB-enabled communication devices. Additionally, the system can determine if the target remains within a predefined area for a specific amount of time. The computer program and target detection system described in the patent provide a comprehensive approach to target detection using UWB technology, offering potential applications in various fields requiring accurate and reliable target tracking capabilities.
