Abstract

A configuration unit () and a method for configuring a sensor () comprising a transmitter () and a plurality of receivers () are provided. The configuration unit is operatively connected to the transmitter and the plurality of receivers, and is adapted to estimate the location of a static element () based on a probing signal () transmitted by the transmitter and based on a return signal () received by the plurality of receivers. The return signal is generated by reflection of the probing signal against the static element. Moreover, the configuration unit is adapted to configure the sensor, for presence detection of a target (), based on the estimated location of the static element.
