Abstract
Exemplary aspects for a specific example concern a radar system having sensor circuitry including multiple radar sensors to provide sensor data via multiple virtual channels and multiple data types, a memory circuit with memory buffers, and a bus-interface circuit to control bus interconnects for bus communications involving a radar signal transmitter and the memory circuit. Radar signals are received and processed, via data acquisition path circuitry in multiple circuit paths and via streams of data in response to and to accommodate the operations of the sensor circuitry. A master controller conveys data, via the bus-interface circuit, to the buffers for the sensor data, and generates selectable-type transactions to be linked in selected ones of the buffers, in response to the data provided from the sensor circuitry and based on the sensor data being provided via different ones of the multiple virtual channels and of the multiple data types.
