A method for evaluating radar signals in a radar system including multiple sensor units, which are each capable of detecting objects in the surroundings of the radar system, the detection areas of the sensor units at least overlapping one another. In the method, each sensor unit calculates a short message from the radar signals received by it, whose data volume is smaller than the complete detection result, but which at least contains data which allow for the identification of potential objects and for the determination of a probability that the potential object is a real object, and at least one evaluation instance receives the entirety of all short messages of all sensor units and, on the basis of these short messages and selected detection results of the sensor units, calculates a consolidated detection result.

Method for evaluating radar signals in a radar system including multiple sensor units

A method for parallelized processing of elements of a first vector R using processorsthrough k includes steps of a) loading a first non-loaded element of the first vector R into processor; (b) loading the next non-loaded element of the first vector R in processor; (c) parallel processing of loaded elements by the processors; (d) transmitting the loaded elements of the first vector R from processorsthrough k&#x2212;1 to the respectively next processorthrough k; (e) loading the next non-loaded element of the first vector R in processor; and (f) returning to step c if not all elements of the first vector R were loaded and processed.
