Abstract: A method and a device are described for calibrating at least two sensors, the sensors being of a different sensor type. The sensors may be located in or on a motor vehicle. It is possible to calibrate the at least two sensors in one operation by using a calibration object containing reference features for determining calibration data for the at least two sensors.

Abstract: In a radar system, a switcher is provided for switching over between at least two different directional characteristics, in particular for different distance ranges, of at least two transmitting antennas. On the receiving side, a combined evaluation of the digitized signals of at least two receiving antennas is performed, in the manner of a correlation of the receiving antenna signals.

Abstract: In a device for measuring angular positions by using radar pulses and mutually overlapping beam characteristics of at least two antenna elements, a switchable phase shifter is provided in the signal path of at least one antenna element which is switchable in the time-division multiplexing between different phase states. For the radar received signals, an evaluation device is provided for the joint and especially simultaneous evaluation of signals of two antenna elements with the participation of antenna element, in whose signal path a switchable phase shifter is provided.

Abstract: A first receiving antenna having a broad antenna characteristic and a second receiving antenna having a narrow antenna characteristic are provided in a radar sensor utilizing the pulse-echo principle. A switching between the receive signals of both receiving antennas at the clock pulse of the pulse repetition frequency of the transmitted radar pulses takes place in the receiving path.
