Abstract
A radar device, for example for automotive applications, comprises a radar circuit, an antenna device and a signal processing device, wherein the radar circuit is configured to transceive a first antenna signal and a second antenna signal, wherein the first antenna signal occupies a first frequency band and the second antenna signal occupies a second frequency band that is separate from the first frequency band, wherein the antenna device is configured to transduce the first antenna signal via a first antenna of the antenna device and the second antenna signal via a second antenna of the antenna device, and wherein the signal processing device comprises a ranging module that is configured to jointly process the first and second antenna signal to determine a distance to a target object irradiated by the antenna device.
