Summary:An apparatus is disclosed for multiplexing radar beat signals. In an example aspect, the apparatus includes an antenna array and a wireless transceiver jointly configured to transmit a radar transmit signal and receive two or more radar receive signals. The two or more radar receive signals represent portions of the radar transmit signal that are reflected by an object. The wireless transceiver comprises a radio-frequency integrated circuit with two or more receive chains and a multiplexing circuit. Each one of the two or more receive chains is configured to generate a radar beat signal by downconverting a respective radar receive signal of the two or more radar receive signals using the radar transmit signal. The multiplexing circuit is coupled to the two or more receive chains and is configured to multiplex the two or more radar beat signals together to generate a composite radar beat signal.
