A method of determining information on spacings and/or on relative speeds of objects with the aid of a continuous-wave radar detector, in which - an original transmitted signal (s(t)) is used to generate a plurality of part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) from the original transmitted signal which differ from one another with respect to a predefined criterion; - the used transmitted signal comprising the part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) is transmitted; - a transmitted signal reflected by an object is received as a received signal (r(t)), with the received signal comprising a plurality of part received signals (r 1 (t), r 2 (t), r 3 (t)) which are associated with respective part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)); - each part transmitted signal (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) is mixed with the received signal (r(t)) in a complex manner such that a respective complex part spectrum having an amplitude spectrum and a phase spectrum is generated for each part transmitted signal; - a comparison of the phase spectra for a respective plurality of different frequency values is carried out, with the comparison of the phase spectra comprising that, for a plurality of frequency values, a respective statistical feature, namely the variance or the standard deviation, of the phase values sampled from the phase spectra for the respective frequency value is determined and a comparison of the statistical features is carried out, with the comparison of the statistical features comprising the determination of a minimum of the statistical features over different frequency values; and - if applicable, a detection signal is generated, with the generation of the detection signal comprising a phase detection signal being generated when the comparison of the phase spectra shows that a predefined phase detection criterion for the detection of an object is satisfied, with the predefined phase detection criterion at a specific frequency signifying the presence of a minimum of the statistical features at this frequency. - an original transmitted signal (s(t)) is used to generate a plurality of part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) from the original transmitted signal which differ from one another with respect to a predefined criterion; - the used transmitted signal comprising the part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) is transmitted; - a transmitted signal reflected by an object is received as a received signal (r(t)), with the received signal comprising a plurality of part received signals (r 1 (t), r 2 (t), r 3 (t)) which are associated with respective part transmitted signals (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)); - each part transmitted signal (s 1 (t), s 2 (t), s 3 (t)) is mixed with the received signal (r(t)) in a complex manner such that a respective complex part spectrum having an amplitude spectrum and a phase spectrum is generated for each part transmitted signal; - a comparison of the phase spectra for a respective plurality of different frequency values is carried out, with the comparison of the phase spectra comprising that, for a plurality of frequency values, a respective statistical feature, namely the variance or the standard deviation, of the phase values sampled from the phase spectra for the respective frequency value is determined and a comparison of the statistical features is carried out, with the comparison of the statistical features comprising the determination of a minimum of the statistical features over different frequency values; and - if applicable, a detection signal is generated, with the generation of the detection signal comprising a phase detection signal being generated when the comparison of the phase spectra shows that a predefined phase detection criterion for the detection of an object is satisfied, with the predefined phase detection criterion at a specific frequency signifying the presence of a minimum of the statistical features at this frequency.
