Abstract

A radar device includes elements for generating a carrier signal having a carrier frequency fT, elements for generating pulses with a pulse repetition frequency fPW, elements for distributing the carrier signal to a transmission branch and a receiving branch, elements for modulate the carrier signal in the transmission path using the undelayed pulses, elements for modulating the carrier signal in the receiving branch using the delayed pulses and for generating a reference signal, elements for mixing the reference signal in the receiving branch with a received signal and elements for integrating the mixed signal. Elements are provided for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation of the carrier signal and elements are provided for switching the polarity of the received signal. A method for suppressing interference in a radar device is also described.
