The mathematical model is based on the quasi-relativistic vector transformation of coordinates and Lorentz time. The spatio-temporal structure of the echo signal was obtained taking into account the transverse component of the radar target speed, which made it possible to expand the boundaries of the range of measuring the range and speed of vehicles using LFMCW radars. An algorithm for the simultaneous estimation of the range, radial and transverse components of the velocity vector of an object from the observation data of the time series during one frame of the probing signal is proposed. For an automobile 77 GHz microwave LFMCW radar, a computer experiment was carried out to measure the range and velocity vector of a radar target using the developed mathematical model of the echo signal and an algorithm for estimating the motion parameters. The boundaries of the range for measuring the range and speed of the target are determined. The results of the performed computer experiment are in good agreement with the results of theoretical analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20205860","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,16]],"date-time":"2020-10-16T08:56:48Z","timestamp":1602838608000},"page":"5860","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["An Elaborated Signal Model for Simultaneous Range and Vector Velocity Estimation in FMCW Radar"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2882-0380","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sergei","family":"Ivanov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology and Telecommunications, Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29 Polytechnicheskaya str., Saint Petersburg 195251, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8594-9423","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vladimir","family":"Kuptsov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology and Telecommunications, Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29 Polytechnicheskaya str., Saint Petersburg 195251, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3054-1786","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vladimir","family":"Badenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology and Telecommunications, Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29 Polytechnicheskaya str., Saint Petersburg 195251, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7511-8076","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexander","family":"Fedotov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology and Telecommunications, Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29 Polytechnicheskaya str., Saint Petersburg 195251, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6","DOI":"10.1109\/MITS.2014.2336271","article-title":"Three Decades of Driver Assistance Systems: Review and Future Perspectives","volume":"4","author":"Bengler","year":"2014","journal-title":"IEEE Intell.
