Abstract
For example, an apparatus may include a Printed Circuit Board (PCB); a Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar antenna on the PCB, the MIMO radar antenna comprising a plurality of Transmit (Tx) antenna elements configured to transmit Tx radar signals, and a plurality of receive (Rx) antenna elements configured to receive Rx radar signals based on the Tx radar signals; and a surface wave mitigator connected to the PCB, the surface wave mitigator configured to mitigate an impact of surface waves via the PCB on a radiation pattern of the MIMO radar antenna.
