1. A computer-implemented method of scheduling radar events, the computer-implemented method comprising:

  • providing a radar device including a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory storing predetermined instructions to control operations of the radar device, the radar device further including radar circuitry that executes radar events, the radar events including transmitting radio waves and receiving reflected radio waves to detect external objects, the radar device further including radio communication circuitry that executes wireless network communication events including communication transmissions with peer radar devices, the radar device having a corresponding schedule of wireless network communication events; and

    executing, by the processor, the predetermined instructions stored in the memory to cause the radar device to perform the operations of;

    receiving radar configuration parameters that include instructions to execute radar events at the radar device;

    analyzing the schedule of wireless network communication events that corresponds to the radar device;

    identifying time slots in the schedule as either scheduled for execute of wireless network communication events or available time slots;

    scheduling radar events to be executed by the radar device during available time slots within the schedule; and

    executing the radar events according to the schedule and radar configuration parameters.
