Abstract:
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.
