    摘要: Target detection units respectively performing detection processing of targets which are different in spatial extent from each other on the basis of a detection result of amplitude or power by a detection unit are provided, and at least one determination processing unit is configured to determine presence or absence of targets from a result of the detection processing of targets by the target detection units. As a result of this configuration, it is possible to detect a target even when it has a spatial extent.

    摘要: Transmission antennas (2-#1 to 2-#M) transmit radiowaves of frequency bands uncorrelated with each other. Receivers (5-#1 to 5-#L) receives target-reflected waves reflected by a target. Pulse compressors (7-#1 to 7-#L) and transmission DBF units (8-#1 to 8-#L) suppress false peaks generated by the Doppler frequency in the target-reflected waves and combines the target-reflected waves. A reception DBF unit (9) and a target detector (10) detect the target based on the results of the combined signals.

    摘要: A range-direction frequency domain converting unit (231-1) converts reception video signals into signals in a range direction frequency. A hit-direction frequency domain converting unit (232-1) converts the signals in the range direction frequency into signals based on the velocity and the range direction frequency so that the target Doppler frequency belongs to the same velocity bin number independently of variations in frequencies of transmission signals. A correlation unit (233-1) generates signals based on the velocity separated for each of the transmission frequencies and a range after correlation. An integration unit (234-1) generates band-synthesized signals based on the velocity and a range after correlation. A candidate target detecting unit (241) detects candidate targets based on the signal intensity from the output signals of the integration unit (233-1). A target relative velocity/relative range/arrival angle calculating unit (242) calculates the relative velocity, the relative range, and the arrival angle of the candidate targets.

    摘要: A transmission radar (1) divides each of multiple frequency bands in such a manner that differences between center frequencies in respective frequency bands after the division are equal, and transmits, in time division manner, transmission signals of which transmission frequencies are the center frequencies in respective frequency bands after the division; a rearrangement processing unit (13) rearranges each of the reception video signals converted by the reception radar (5) in such a manner that sets of reception video signals corresponding to the multiple frequency bands before being divided by the transmission radar (1) are arranged in a row; and a band synthesis processing unit (14) performs a band synthesis on each of the reception video signals rearranged by the rearrangement processing unit (13).

    摘要: Transmission radars (1-nTX) (nTX=1, 2, . . . , NTX) generate mutually different modulation codes Code(nTX, h) by cyclically shifting the same code sequence by mutually different cyclic shift amounts Δτ(nTX), and generate mutually different transmission RF signals (4-nTX) using the mutually different modulation codes Code(nTX, h). As a result, the number of transmission radars 1-nTX can be made larger, and target detection accuracy can be made higher than in a case where orthogonal codes are used as mutually different modulation codes.

    摘要: A frequency domain transforming unit (231-1) performs a transform into a frequency domain in such a way that a Doppler velocity bin is the same for each of different transmission frequencies. A correlation unit (232-1) generates signals based on a velocity and a range after correlation, the signals being separate for each of the transmission frequencies. An integrating unit (233-1) generates band-synthesized signals based on a velocity and a range after correlation. A target candidate detecting unit (241) performs detection of a target candidate on output signals of the integrating unit (233-1) on the basis of signal strength. A target's relative-velocity/relative-range/arrival-angle calculating unit (242) calculates a relative velocity, a relative range, and an arrival angle of the target candidate.
