Abstract
A multibeam radar sensor is proposed in which a holder (of resilient construction) for polyrods, in connection with a spacing element, holds the polyrods fixedly at a predetermined spacing, preferably in the range between 0 mm and 0.2 mm. The stays of the holder are fashioned such that a spring force constantly presses the spacing element against the base plate. In this context, the spring force is chosen such that the maintenance of the predetermined spacing a is ensured even under disadvantageous operating conditions such as vibration, shock, and impact.
