PARKING AID COMPRISING SUPPRESSION OF GROUND ECHOES OR INTERFERING ECHOES BY MEANS OF AN ADAPTIVE ADJUSTMENT OF THE RECEPTION CHARACTERISTICS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for detecting an object by adaptively adjusting detection characteristics of a detection unit. Said method comprises the following steps: first predetermined detection parameters of the detection unit (11, 12, 13) are set at the beginning of a detection process; the detection parameters of the detection unit (11, 12, 13) are adjusted in the event of stochastically occurring detection signals until said stochastically occurring detection signals are no longer detected or second predetermined detection parameters are set; and a detection process is carried out with the optionally adjusted detection parameters of the detection unit (11, 12, 13). The invention also relates to a device for detecting an object by adaptively adjusting detection characteristics of a detection unit.
