- the disclosed system preferably has two such delay lines, wherein in operation the first delay line with a suitable length is switched active, that is, transmits the signal, while the second delay line is inactive. At this second delay line, the next required length is set and then is switched from the first to the second line, in order to avoid larger phase jumps in this way can.

- the present invention is based on the recognition that the superimposition of two different delayed signals produces a signal whose "center of gravity" has a delay corresponding to the amplitude-weighted average of the original delays. This relationship is illustrated in FIG. 1 on the basis of the time-shifted signals s-t ⁇ ) and .s (t-t 2 ). The "focus" of the
- each intermediate delay it is possible to approximate.
- the behavior is further improved, since the different delays mean that both signals have different but closely spaced frequencies.
- a so-called beat arises, that is, an amplitude-modulated oscillation.
- the frequency of this oscillation corresponds to the weighted average of the two original frequencies. In this way, preferably at least substantially every frequency can be reproduced in a required distance interval and thus every delay between zero and the maximum value.
- a "radar target emulator” in the sense of the present invention is in particular a device for stimulating a sensor, in particular a vehicle, which in particular receives a radar signal of the sensor, modulates and returns it to the sensor, wherein the modulation maps the test scenario in order to generate the Reaction of a controller in this, in particular virtual, test scenario to determine and evaluate.

- An “adding device” in the sense of the present invention is, in particular, an electrically passive component in the field of high-frequency technology, which serves to couple an electromagnetic power described as a guided wave into a conductor structure Transformers and capacitors, on or a line coupler, for example, on electrical circuit boards in the form of strip lines, or a combination of waveguides .
- adders in the context of the present invention can also be actively realized, for example by using a summing circuit with broadband operational amplifiers.

- a radar signal emitted by a real sensor such as a vehicle to be evaluated, is received, delayed, and provided for further modulation in the course of mapping a virtual test scenario.
- the three signals differ at least substantially exclusively in terms of the applied delay, which serve in the further course of the emulation of different objects in mutually different distances to the sensor.

- the attenuation degree of the first attenuation device and / or the attenuation degree of the second attenuation device, in particular and / or the attenuation degree of the third attenuation device are set and / or changed, in particular, between a lower extreme value and an upper extreme value wherein the upper extreme value corresponds to an attenuation of at least substantially 100% and / or the lower extreme value corresponds to an attenuation of at least substantially 0%.
- the respectively applied input signal is at least substantially completely suppressed, while the respectively present input signal is forwarded at least substantially unchanged with an attenuation of at least substantially 0%.
- a further aspect of the present invention relates to a method for blending signals, in particular by means of a radar target emulator of the type described here, comprising the steps:
- a third signal is additionally applied to a third attenuation device in S2, and in addition the third signal, in particular in the degree of attenuation different from the degree of attenuation of the first and / or second attenuation device, is changed by means of the third attenuation device, wherein the Degree of attenuation of the third attenuator, in particular dynamically and / or incrementally, in particular at least substantially continuously, can be changed.
- the degree of attenuation of the first attenuation device and / or the attenuation level of the second attenuation device, in particular and / or the degree of attenuation of the third attenuation device are set and / or changed between a lower extreme value and an upper extreme value.
- the upper extreme value corresponds to an attenuation of at least substantially 100%
- / or the lower extreme value corresponds to an attenuation of at least substantially 0%.
- the method further comprises the steps:
- the degree of attenuation of the first attenuation device is increased, while the degree of attenuation of the second attenuation device is reduced at least substantially simultaneously and the degree of attenuation of the third attenuation device, in particular constant, at least substantially corresponds to the upper extreme value, in particular 100%;
- step S2a the crossfading between the first and the second signal is described, whereas in step 2b describes how the object distance to be emulated can be further changed if the distance corresponds at least substantially to the distance emulated by the second signal and therefore to a
- step 2b describes how the object distance to be emulated can be further changed if the distance corresponds at least substantially to the distance emulated by the second signal and therefore to a
- the respective input is therefore to be regarded as inactive, since the transition occurs at the respective time between the other two attenuators and the attenuation ungsgrad the inactive input is at least substantially 100%, so that - as already explained above - a change in the corresponding signal has at least substantially no influence on the output signal of the cross-fading device.
