A method and device for locating an object by reflection detection of wave pulses are

摘要

The invention relates to a method for determining the location of an object with respect to a vehicle. The method comprising: providing a transmitter - / receiving device with a plurality of distributed on the vehicle transmitter - / receiving elements, transmission of transmitter - wave pulses are a carrier wave by means of the transmitter - / receiving device during the same location determination period, and reception of a reception pulse - waves, which corresponds to the transmitter - wave pulses are, which are reflected from the object. According to the invention, the transmission of: sending wave pulses are transmitter - by means of the transmitter - / receiver elements, wherein the pulse length of the transmitter - pulses, which, during the same location determination period be sent, for at least two of the transmitter - / reception elements is different. The method further provides the location relative to the of the mounted on the vehicle, transmitter - / receiving device by comparison of components of the reception - waves pulse to be detected, which are associated with the same location determination period and from various transmitter - / receiving elements originate.The present invention also relates to a correspondingly configured an apparatus for carrying out the method.
