Abstract: A mounting bracket for a radar sensor is provided. The mounting bracket comprises a first layer and a second layer positioned adjacent to the first layer. The second layer has a higher absorption coefficient than the first layer for radar waves having a wavelength in a predetermined range of wavelengths. The mounting bracket is configured to be mounted in a predefined orientation such that the first layer is first exposed to radar waves transmitted by the radar sensor before the second layer is exposed to the radar waves. A radar system including the mounting bracket and methods for manufacturing the mounting bracket and for integrating the radar system in a vehicle are also disclosed.
