Abstract

An assembly for a detection system for a vehicle in an environment has a radar sensor positioned around a central boresight axis. The radar sensor includes an RF board with at least one antenna and a support bracket configured to secure the detection system to the vehicle. The support bracket has sloped walls forming a radiation aperture between the RF board and the environment. The sloped walls have distal ends distal to the radar sensor. A plurality of sloped flaps extend from the distal ends and slope inwardly from the distal ends towards the boresight axis to intercept radiation within the radiation aperture.
