This document describes techniques for parking and ventilation management systems for vehicle batteries. An example system includes a processor that determines whether a battery of a vehicle requires cooling. In response to a determination that the battery requires cooling, the processor determines where the vehicle is located (e.g., home garage or public location). If the vehicle is parked in the home garage, the processor requests a change in an initial state value of a home component (e.g., garage door) to reduce the ambient temperature of the home garage. If the vehicle is located in a public location, the processor determines a parking space with optimal thermal conditions (e.g., shaded or fewer surrounding vehicles) and autonomously operates the vehicle to the selected parking space. In this way, the described system can manage ambient conditions to improve temperature management of vehicle batteries, thereby improving their reliability and longevity.

Multiple-Target, Simultaneous Beamforming for Four-Dimensional Radar Systems
This document describes techniques and systems of multiple-target, simultaneous beamforming for four-dimensional (4D) radar systems for efficient angle estimation in two dimensions with a high dynamic range. For example, a processor can use electromagnetic (EM) energy received by a two-dimensional (2D) array to determine first angles in a first dimension associated with one or more objects. The processor can then determine a subspace projection matrix using the first angles without an estimate of the power of noise or interference signals in the received EM energy. Using the subspace projection matrix, the processor can determine an interference-orthogonal subspace projection-based beamformer. With the interference-orthogonal subspace projection-based beamformer, the processor can determine the desired signal output from an adaptive beamformer for the EM energy and second angles corresponding to respective first angles for the objects.

This document describes techniques, apparatuses, and systems for movement compensation for multi-dimensional radar signal processing. A radar system receives radar signals reflected off of an object, and a two-dimension representation of the reflections is generated in the frequency domain. The two-dimensional representation illustrates attributes of the radar signals with respect to a fast-time dimension and a slow-time dimension. An energy peak within this two-dimensional representation is determined. Data associated with the energy peak, including a range and range rate, are determined from compensating the energy peak for movement of the object within a single frame. This compensation can include adjusting frequencies associated with the energy peak in the fast-time dimension and/or the slow-time dimension. The data associated with the energy peak is output to enable radar tracking with more accurate range and range rates measurements than can be output without performing movement compensation.
