    摘要: Performance of a radar apparatus including a plurality of transceiver ICs is improved. The radar apparatus includes: a plurality of integrated circuit, which, in operation, perform signal processing on a received signal; and a signal processing circuit, which, in operation, compensates for a deviation between the plurality of integrated circuits based on a difference between leak radio wave components received by receive antennas corresponding respectively to the plurality of integrated circuits.

    摘要: An object detection apparatus in a vehicle is provided. The object detection apparatus includes one or more sensors configured to detect at least one object located on at least three rows of seats in the vehicle, the one or more sensors being positioned on a ceiling of the vehicle. The object detection apparatus further includes a circuit configured to determine whether or not the at least one object detected is a living-object. A number of the one or more sensors is less than a number of the at least three rows of seats.

    摘要: One of a transmitting array antenna and a receiving array antenna includes a first antenna group and a second antenna group. The first antenna group includes one or more first antenna elements of which the phase centers of the antenna elements are laid out at each first layout spacing following a first axis direction, and a shared antenna element. The second antenna group includes a plurality of second antenna elements and the one shared antenna element, and the phase centers of the antenna elements are laid out in two columns at each second layout spacing following a second axis direction that is different from the first axis direction. The phase centers of the antenna elements included in each of the two columns differ from each other regarding position in the second axis direction.

    摘要: Radar transmitter includes a plurality of transmit antennas that transmit a plurality of transmission signals using a multiplexing transmission, and a transmission circuit. The transmission circuit applies phase rotation amounts corresponding to combinations of Doppler shift amounts and code sequences to the plurality of transmission signals. Each of the combinations of the Doppler shift amounts and the code sequences has at least one different from other combination. The number of multiplexes of the code sequence corresponding to at least one of the Doppler shift amounts in the combinations is different from the number of multiplexing of code sequences corresponding to the remaining Doppler shift amounts.

    摘要: A radar device includes a radar transmitting circuit that transmits radar signals from a transmission array antenna, and a radar receiving circuit that receives returning wave signals, where the radar signals have been reflected at a target, from a receiving array antenna. One of the transmitting array antenna and the receiving array antenna includes multiple first antennas of which phase centers are laid out along a first axis direction. The other of the transmitting array antenna and the receiving array antenna includes multiple second antennas of which phase centers are laid out at a second spacing along a second axis direction that is different from the first axis direction. The multiple first antennas include multiple antennas of which the phase centers are laid out at a first spacing, and multiple antennas of which the phase centers are laid out at a third spacing that is different from the first spacing.
