An angle-resolving radar sensor, e.g., for motor vehicles, includes; an antenna having multiple antenna elements which are each switchable to one of multiple evaluation channels; and an evaluation device for determining the angle of incidence of a received signal based on the amplitudes measured in the evaluation channels. The number of antenna elements is greater than the number of evaluation channels and a switching device is provided to connect the evaluation channels alternatingly to different selections of antenna elements.

A method and a system for detecting radar objects with the aid of an angle-resolving radar sensor of a motor vehicle in the presence of an object which extends in the driving direction laterally next to the motor vehicle's own lane and reflects radar waves, a measured position distribution which corresponds to a distribution of azimuth angles of received radar signals of the radar sensor reflected off a radar object being compared to a model of a position distribution which is expected taking into account the presence of the object extending in the driving direction next to the vehicle's own lane, and is a function of a distance from the radar object and a position of a radar object being determined based on the result of the comparison.

In a method for cyclically measuring distances (d) and relative velocities (v) of objects using an FMCW radar sensor, the frequency (f) of a transmitted signal of the radar sensor is periodically modulated, each period (P) including at least two differing modulation patterns, a relationship between distance (d) and velocity (v) of the object being derived from a signal received for a single modulation pattern, and the signals received for multiple modulation patterns being adjusted to one another in order to determine one value each for the distance and the velocity per each measuring cycle. For the adjustment between a signal obtained for a modulation pattern in the instantaneous measuring cycle and the signal(s) obtained for other modulation patterns, the signals from at least one previous measuring cycle are utilized.

In a method for operating a MIMO radar, an influence of an object motion on an angle estimate is substantially eliminated, and a time multiplex schema having a transmission sequence and transmission instants of transmitters of the MIMO radar is identified by optimizing the following mathematical relationship: d _ pulses , opt = arg max d _ pulses [ Var S ( d _ pulses ) - ( Cov S ( d _ pulses , t ) ) 2 / Var S ( t _ ) ] in which: dpulses,opt is optimized positions of the transmitters in the sequence in which they transmit; dpulses is positions of the transmitters in the sequence in which they transmit; t is transmission instants; VarS is sample variance; and CovS is sample covariance.

In a method for ascertaining whether a target object can be driven over by the controlled motor vehicle, with the aid of frequency-modulated radar signals of a radar sensor, amplitude ratios between received radar signals reflected from the target object are utilized, the received radar signals corresponding to signals which have been transmitted in different frequency ranges. Based on the amplitude ratios, an occurrence of interference between (i) a first radar signal propagation path between the radar sensor and the target object and (ii) a second propagation path with additional reflection from a road is detected, and based on the detection of an occurrence of interference it is ascertained whether the object can be driven over.
