Patent number: 12411211Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a multistatic radar system and a method for a spatially resolved detection of an object under test. The multistatic radar system includes an at least two-dimensional multistatic array of antenna elements having an at least partially shared coverage area. At least one data processing circuit is coupled to the array. Analog and/or digital beamforming is performed thereby obtaining at least one image of the object under test at least partially being located within the shared coverage area. Processing the image obtained is used to resolve at least one scattering center of the object under test. A spatially resolved scattering center distribution is determined based on the image obtained.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2021Date of Patent: September 9, 2025Assignee: Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Matthias Beer, Marius Brinkmann, Gerhard Hamberger

Publication number: 20250229207Abstract: A pocket filter comprising a plurality of filter pockets, a frame holding the filter pockets, and at least one clamping strip fixing filter layers of two neighboring filter pockets. A profile of the clamping strip is designed in one piece and has a first section and a second section that are movably connected to one another, a T-shaped locking element is formed on the first section, and the T-shaped locking element has a base and a cross-piece extending substantially perpendicularly to the base. A proximal hook-shaped locking element and a distal hook-shaped locking element are formed on the second section, between which the T-shaped locking element is arranged and which engage behind the cross-piece when the clamping strip is in a locked state in which the filter layers of the two neighboring filter pockets are clamped in the clamping strip.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2025Publication date: July 17, 2025Inventors: Joseph POWER, Marius BRINKMANN, Magnus JOHNSSON

Publication number: 20230341533Abstract: A LiDAR test system for testing a LiDAR device under test is described. The LiDAR test system includes an optical module and a target simulator. The LiDAR device under test has a predetermined field of view. The optical module is configured to redirect a LiDAR signal emitted by the LiDAR device under test from a predetermined portion of the field of view to the target simulator, wherein the predetermined portion is adaptable. The target simulator includes a receiver configured to receive the LiDAR signal redirected by the optical module. The target simulator includes a manipulation unit configured to manipulate the received LiDAR signal, thereby generating a manipulated LiDAR signal. The target simulator further includes an emitter configured to emit the manipulated LiDAR signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Applicant: Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co.
