RadarSensorView Multiple Rx Channels

[kmeids]

Describe the problem

Considering one radar with multiple Rx antennas, it seems that under osi3::RadarSensorView/osi3::RadarSensorViewReflection messages there is no way to separately add/encode the radar returns per channel.
One can add multiple reflections (returns) however not multiple reflections/channel.

Here is a screenshot that illustrates the problem:

So my basic question is, is there something that I am missing or is this currently not supported in which case an extension would be required.

The way that OSI currently would model multiple rx antennas would be via multiple RadardSensorViewConfigurations&RadarSensorViews: Each of those has its own physical sensor id (which is distinct from the virtual sensor id of the overall SensorViewConfiguration/SensorView), allowing clear identification of the data. For multiple Rx antennas this is also fairly efficient, since rays have to be started for each Rx antenna anyway.

Yes but RadarSensorView does not have an id field. Or am I missing something here?
