摘要:
In a method for checking the functionality of a mixer, the mixer is supplied with a high-frequency signal and a high-frequency comparison signal in order to generate a baseband signal. The amplitude of the high-frequency signal is modified as a function of time. A direct-current voltage component of the baseband signal which is output by the mixer is analyzed to determine the functionality of the mixer.

A radar system includes at least two modules, each having a phase detector and a first high-frequency source and each having an antenna output and/or each having one or more antennas. At least two modules include a device for synchronization between the first high-frequency source of a first module of the at least two modules and the first high-frequency source of a second module of the at least two modules of the radar system. The phase detector has a first input for a first reference signal. The phase detector also has a second input for a first loop signal. A module for a radar system has the design of one of the modules of the radar system described above.

摘要:
A radar sensor emits microwave radiation and receives partial radiation reflected at objects within the sensor detection range, a plurality of antennas being provided for the transmission and reception in each case, and the transmission power of the outer antennas being lower than the transmission power of the inner antennas. This is accomplished by reducing the transmission power with the aid of couplers, the couplers advantageously being implementable as Wilkinson power splitters.
摘要:
The radar sensor has a transceiver device for generating a radar signal having a settable output power, a control unit and an interface unit. The transceiver device may be controlled via a digital interface via the interface unit and the control unit. One of the lines of the interface is connected to the control unit, the control unit being designed in such a way that when a predetermined level is present on this line, the output power of the transceiver device is lowered.
