  • Publication number: 20220107386
    Abstract: A radar device including a transceiver unit and a signal processing unit. The transceiver unit detects a first measuring range including distances from the radar device in a first predefined distance range and outputs first sensor signals. The transceiver unit detects a second measuring range including distances from the radar device in a second predefined distance range and outputs second sensor signals. The signal processing unit evaluates the first and second sensor signals. The first distance range at least partially differs from the second distance range. The distances of the second distance range are greater than a predefined minimum distance.
