Abstract
According to the invention, a multi-beam radar sensor for microwaves is proposed, in which between a lens and the transmitter/receiver elements (6), focusing bodies (1) are disposed in such a way that they prefocus the radiation of an applicable transmitter/receiver element (6) with respect to the dielectric lens (8). The focusing bodies (1) are retained by a dielectric plate (2), into which a mount (4) is inserted. The mount (4) is embodied with regard to its material and geometric dimensions such that the least possible coupling between the individual focusing bodies (1) occurs. To attain this object, the mount (4) is embodied by recesses (5) in the regions between the focusing bodies (1). For simpler assembly and adjustment, bores (3) and adjustment openings (10) are provided.
