Abstract
A method and a wireless communication device for managing activation of radar modules in the device are disclosed herein. The device comprises a plurality of wireless communication modules, a plurality of radar modules, and a processor. The wireless communication modules comprise one or more antennas that are configured to transmit and receive wireless communication signals, and the radar modules comprise one or more antennas that are configured to transmit and receive radar signals. The processor is configured to determine which of the wireless communication modules are active, obtain spatial information comprising spatial positions within the device of the wireless communication modules and the radar modules, determine one or more transmission characteristics of the active wireless communication modules and the radar modules, determine a set of the plurality of radar modules to activate based on the spatial information and the transmission characteristics, and activate the determined set of radar modules.
