Claim 16:
17. A radar device comprising:
a control component configured to transmit a start frame signal to initiate transmission of a frame of chirps;
a first storage configured to store sets of chirp configuration parameter values, one set of chirp configuration parameter values for each chirp of the frame of chirps, each set of chirp configuration parameter values including a chirp profile select parameter;
a second storage configured to store multiple chirp profiles; and
a timing engine configured to, in response to receiving the start frame signal, send a chirp address to the first storage to access the sets of chirp configuration parameters for the frame of chirps, and generate, sequentially for each chirp in the frame, chirp control signals according to the set of chirp configuration parameter values and a corresponding chirp profile of the multiple chirp profiles.
