ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 15 -- United States Patent no. 12,736,654, issued on Sept. 15, was assigned to Northeastern University (Boston).

"Millimeter-wave massive MIMO FMCW radar with binary-phase-coded OFDM" was invented by Weite Zhang (Malden, Mass.) and Jose Angel Martinez-Lorenzo (Wellesley, Mass.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar system comprises two or more software-defined millimeter-wave (SDMMW) nodes, a host processing system that is electrically coupled to the two or more SDMMW nodes, and a MIMO aperture array coupled to the two or more SDMMW nodes. The MIMO radar system is configured to form a MIMO TX channel and a MIMO RX channel for each o...
