Abstract
A method for operating a plurality of radar sensors (2, 2a-2h) in a motor vehicle (1, 1′), wherein at least one operational parameter of the radar sensors (2, 2a-2h) can be changed, wherein driving situation data describing a current driving situation of the motor vehicle (1, 1′) are analyzed in order to determine a requirements profile for the sensor data of the radar sensors (2, 2a-2h) and wherein the operational parameters of the radar sensors (2, 2a-2h) are adapted to the requirements profile taking into consideration at least the detection properties of all radar sensors (2, 2a-2h).
