Abstract
A circuit configuration has a radar equipment for determining a distance or a relative speed. The radar equipment continuously transmits frequency-modulated signals, at modulation rates of different size, depending on the speed of the vehicle in which the radar equipment is installed. A higher modulation rate produces better range resolution for a constant maximum analog frequency, which is advantageous particularly in the low speed range.
