Abstract:
Methods for monitoring of performance parameters of one or more receive channels and/or one or more transmit channels of a radar system-on-a-chip (SOC) are provided. The radar SOC may include a loopback path coupling at least one transmit channel to at least one receive channel to provide a test signal from the at least one transmit channel to the at least one receive channel when the radar SOC is operated in test mode. In some embodiments, the loopback path includes a combiner coupled to each of one or more transmit channels, a splitter coupled to each of one or more receive channels, and a single wire coupling an output of the combiner to an input of the splitter.

Claim (Index 9):
The SOC of  claim 8 , in which a transmit channel of the one or more transmit channels includes a programmable shifter coupled to the transmission generation circuitry to receive the signal, the programmable shifter operable to add a non-zero frequency to the continuous wave signal to generate a test signal, and in which an output of the programmable shifter is coupled to an input of a first receive channel of the two or more receive channels via a loopback path, the loopback path operable to provide the test signal to the first receive channel.
