A motor control apparatus drives an inverter which supplies and receives electric power with respect to a motor by pulse width modulation. The motor control apparatus sets a frequency of a carrier such that a frequency of a sideband wave component of the carrier which is used for the pulse width modulation and a frequency of a predetermined rotation order of the motor become different from each other.

A stator of a rotating electric machine includes a stator core provided with a plurality of slots along a circumferential direction, coils of a plurality of phases distributedly wound around the stator core via the plurality of slots, and an insulating paper disposed between the slot and the coil. The insulating paper has an adhesive portion which fixes the coil to the stator core and a part of the coil of each phase is fixed to the stator core by the adhesive portion.

When a transmission condition regarding a state detected by a state detection unit (vehicle sensor, operation detection sensor, external environment sensor, or internal environment sensor) is satisfied while a travel controller performs a travel control, a vehicle control system transmits attentional state information representing a travel state, an operation state, or an environment state to a travel assist server through a communication device.

This invention relates to an object recognition apparatus. This apparatus comprises an antenna which emits transmission beams toward a plurality of directions; a receiving circuit which receives reflected signals of the transmission beams from predetermined directions; a distance and direction calculation circuit which calculates distance and direction to objects reflecting the transmission beams based on the transmission beams and the reflected signals; an object pattern storage unit which stores range direction patterns of reflected signals obtained in advance with respect to predetermined objects; an object recognition circuit which compares range direction patterns of the reflected signals received by the receiving circuit with respect to the predetermined directions, with the range direction patterns stored in the object pattern storage unit, and which recognize that a pair of reflected signals from two neighboring directions are signals reflected by the same object.

A radar apparatus is provided that can correctly extract the necessary point for a determination related to the safe travel of one's automotive vehicle among objects such as automotive vehicles moving at an angle in front and constructed objects. The radar apparatus of the present invention provides antennas that transmit beams in a plurality of directions and receive the reflected waves from objects as received signals. The objects that generated these reflected waves are detected. In addition, this radar apparatus provides a reflected location detection device that detects the reflected locations that are the generation source of the reflected waves for this plurality of directions, a grouping device that groups each of these detected reflected locations into a group of single or plural reflected locations assuming they belong to the same object, and a device that extracts reflected locations having the shortest distance from the moving body from among these grouped reflected locations to serve as reference points related to the safe travel of this moving body.

Radar apparatus

A radar device for detecting distances and relative speeds of obstructions such as preceding vehicles has a stationary object identifier for identifying stationary objects such as roadside guard rails and the like and a stationary object eliminator for eliminating data identified as pertaining to such stationary objects. The stationary object identifier detects peak densities in a beat spectrum detected as a difference between transmitted and received frequencies of a radar beam modulated to rise and fall in frequency periodically and identifies peak groups having peak densities above a predetermined value as stationary objects. Therefore, it is possible to detect a stationary roadside object on the basis of peak densities. The stationary object eliminator eliminates data of peak groups identified as stationary objects by the stationary object identifier and thereby removes them as objects of combination processing for pairing rise side beat frequencies with fall side beat frequencies. As a result the amount of processing required for this pairing is reduced and the occurrence of wrong pairings is reduced and it is possible to eliminate the unnecessary calculation of distances and relative speeds of roadside objects.

Radar device

An object detecting system detects an object using an FM-CW wave, so that even if either one of rising-side and falling-side peak frequencies is missing, a plurality of objects can be accurately recognized by accurately combining pluralities of rising-side and falling-side peak frequencies. When it is determined that either one of rising-side and falling-side peak frequencies is missing, the combination of the peak frequencies is determined by calculating the missing peak frequency based on a peak frequency which is not missing.
