Abstract
A method for the phase calibration of a MIMO radar sensor having an array of transmitting and receiving antenna elements that are offset from each other in at least one direction, and high-frequency modules, which are each assigned to a part of the array. The array is subdivided into transmitting subarrays and receiving subarrays in such a manner, that each subarray is assigned to exactly one of the high-frequency modules and at least two receiving subarrays, which belong to different high-frequency modules, are offset from each other in the at least one direction and are aligned with each other in the direction perpendicular to it. The method includes a calibration which corrects a receiving control vector with the aid of a known relationship between first and second comparison variables for the respective receiving subarrays.
