Abstract :
The field of application for a radar sensor is outlined and a requirement profile is derived therefrom. A standard hardware platform for a CWFM radar is described. By step-form modification of known modulation signals, new methods for the elimination of phantom objects and for the correction of typical receiver errors are made possible. The application of a residual-class code with its special correlation properties ensures high level detection probability of all objects
