1. A radar system comprising:
at least one transmitting element adapted to transmit a radar signal,
at least one receiving element adapted to receive a reflected signal of the radar signal that is transmitted by the transmitting element, and
a radome covering the transmitting element and the receiving element, the radome having an inner surface that faces the transmitting element and the receiving element, the inner surface of the radome including a recess situated across from a space between the transmitting element and the receiving element,
wherein
the recess has a length parallel to the inner surface,
the recess has a width parallel to the inner surface and perpendicular to the length,
the width varies along the length,
the transmitting element has a transmitting instrumented field of view into which the radar signal is transmitted,
the receiving element has a receiving instrumented field of view from which the reflected signal is received, and
the recess of the radome is located outside the transmitting instrumented field of view and outside the receiving instrumented field of view.
