Abstract

A radar target simulation system for simulating at least one radar target is disclosed. The radar target simulation system includes a processing circuit and an antenna array that is connected with the processing circuit. The antenna array is configured to receive a radar signal from a device under test, thereby generating an input signal. The processing circuit is configured to receive the input signal generated by the antenna array. The processing circuit is configured to simulate the at least one radar target based on the input signal. The processing circuit further is configured to simulate at least one additional event, wherein the at least one additional event is associated with at least one of the at least one radar target and an environment of the at least one radar target. The processing circuit is configured to generate an output signal for the antenna array based on the simulation of the at least one radar target and based on the simulation of the at least one additional event. Moreover, a radar target simulation method is described.
