    摘要: In a multibeam radar sensor apparatus having at least two transmission/reception channels, whose signal paths each include an antenna and a mixer, at least one first mixer is configured bidirectionally as a transfer mixer, and at least one second mixer is switchable from a first into a second operating state; in the first operating state, the mixer is bidirectionally configured as a transfer mixer, and in the second operating state, the mixer being configured in an at least approximately isolating manner as a receiving mixer. In addition, in a method for determining a distance and/or a speed of a target, a radar signal is transmitted in a direction of the target and a reflected radar echo is received, for which at least two transmission/reception channels are used whose signal paths each include an antenna and a mixer; at least one mixture is switched over from a first into a second operating state, in order to use the mixer, in the first operating state, bidirectionally as a transfer mixture, and, in the second operating state, in an at least approximately isolating manner as a receiving mixer.

    摘要: A monostatic multibeam radar sensor device for a motor vehicle, including a directional characteristic of an antenna unit having at least one transceiving channel and at least one receiving channel, and including a mixer system, which has an at least approximately isolating mixer for at least one of the receiving channels. The at least approximately isolating mixer includes a Gilbert cell mixer, which, due to a non-ideal isolation between an input of the local oscillator signal and the corresponding receiving channel, emits a transmission power via this receiving channel, using an overcoupling signal, the transmission power influencing the directional characteristic of the antenna unit and the directional characteristic being switchable by controlling the phase position of the overcoupling signal.
