Abstract: A method for detecting interference in a received signal received by a radar sensor of a motor vehicle is disclosed. For detecting a target object in an environment of the motor vehicle, a transmit signal is emitted by the radar sensor, which includes a sequence of consecutive frequency-modulated chirp signals. The radar sensor then receives an echo signal reflected on the target object as the received signal with the superimposed interference. After receiving the received signal, the interference in the chirp signals of the received signal is detected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for carrying out one or more collision-avoiding measures of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle. In the method, the positions of static and dynamic objects 11 are detected in a step 10, and one or more trajectories 21 which avoid collisions with the detected objects 11 are determined for the vehicle in a step 20. According to the invention, a danger value 23 for the determined trajectory 21 or for each of the determined trajectories 21, is determined continuously or periodically in a further step 22. This danger value 23 constitutes a measure for the forces which act on the vehicle when the respective trajectory 21 is passed through. The collision-avoiding measures are then carried out in a step 27 if the determined danger value 23, or the determined danger values 23, is/are above a selected or predefined threshold value 26. In addition, the invention relates to a device for carrying out the method.
