Abstract
For providing time multiplexing sequences for transmit antennas of a linear or two-dimensional MIMO radar unit that includes antennas situated close to one another (collocated MIMO radar), a method that enables a precise angle estimation includes implementing an algorithm with which a transmit sequence of transmitters and their transmit times are determined so that object movements have essentially no influence on the angle estimation. In this way, as a function of previously known quantities, optimal time multiplexing sequences can be determined in each case.
