1 Introduction

The automotive industry’s shift toward higher autonomy levels demands radar sensors that meet stringent safety and performance criteria. Radar technology plays a critical role in providing real-time data for ADAS, supporting vehicle functions like ACC (adaptive cruise control), LCA (lane change assist), collision avoidance, etc. As vehicles evolve to meet increasing regulatory and consumer expectations, radar sensors must extend detection range, improve object discrimination resolution, and support robust data processing capabilities. AWR2E44P and AWR2944P sensors address these needs through key technical advancements in performance, computational capacity, and manufacturing quality, setting a new standard for high-performing, cost-efficient radar systems. AWR2E44P supports TI’s LoP interface to antennas, whereas AWR2944P supports a PCB interface to antennas.
