Assignee: TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITäT DRESDEN
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 6:
7. A method for operating a radar assembly comprising,
on the transmitter side, controlling with a first oscillator frequency a first frequency comb generator, generating at least indirectly from the first oscillator frequency a primary signal containing a plurality of mutually equidistant first frequency components, and emitting the signal via a transmitting antenna,
generating an intermediate frequency at least indirectly from a second oscillator frequency by mixing a received reflected signal with the second oscillator frequency,
on the receiver side, controlling with the second oscillator frequency a second frequency comb generator for generating an output signal containing a plurality of mutually equidistant second frequency components that are frequency-shifted with respect to the first frequency components and do not include any one of the first frequency components,
mixing the output signal generated in this manner with a third oscillator frequency and generating therefrom a mixed signal, and
generating the intermediate frequency by mixing the received, reflected signal with the mixed signal.
