Title:

REFLECTOR SYSTEM IN A RADAR TARGET SIMULATOR FOR TESTING A FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITY OF A RADAR SENSOR AND METHOD FOR TESTING A FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITY OF A RADAR SENSOR

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/074539

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a reflector system in a radar target simulator for testing the functional capability of a radar sensor, wherein the reflector system comprises the following: at least one antenna for emitting an electromagnetic wave in a transmitting plane for simulating a backscattering of an obstacle, at least one reflector for reflecting an electromagnetic wave emitted by the at least one antenna into a receiving plane, and a positioning area, which is predetermined in a receiving plane and in which a radar sensor to be tested is positioned or positionable for receiving the electromagnetic wave transmitted by the at least one antenna and reflected into the receiving plane, wherein the at least one antenna is arranged in or near a first wave emission point or a first focal point of the at least one reflector and a second wave incidence point of the at least one reflector is arranged in the positioning area. The present invention further relates to a method for testing a functional capability of a radar sensor in a radar target simulator, wherein the method is carried out using the proposed reflector system.
