Provide an on-vehicle radar device that performs transmission control of a monitoring signal, following fixed rules, so that interference with other radar devices can be avoided with certainty. An on-vehicle radar device comprises a transceiver which transmits/receives a monitoring signal at a specified frequency band and transmits a priority order signal at a frequency within the above-mentioned frequency band, and a controller which switches the signals transmitted by the transceiver. The transceiver receives a priority order signal of another radar device, and when interference with the signal of the other radar device is detected, the controller, based on the priority order of that other device and on the priority order of the device itself, shifts, by a specified frequency amount, the frequency band of the monitoring signal transmitted by the transceiver.

On-vehicle radar device and on-vehicle radar device control system

The search/detection apparatus modulates a carrier signal by a modulation signal, generates a probe signal for detecting the location of a target, and receives the probe signal reflected by the target as an echo signal. Then, the search/detection apparatus detects the existence of an interference signal other than the echo signal from the received signal and modifies the parameter of the modulation signal and/or carrier signal.

Search/detection apparatus

In order to provide the method and the device for distance measurement by pulse radar that securely eliminates the false echo from the distance over the detectable limit determined by the pulse generation cycle, the pulse radar comprises the pulse signal sending unit that generates the pulse signals with different cycles at OSC, switches to the predetermined intervals by OSC switch, and sends the pulse signal to targets, the reflected signal receiving unit that receives the reflected signals and stores the data in the RAM, the reflected signal data acquisition unit that obtains the data of each reflected signal, and the reflected signal identification unit that compares the intensity of the reflected signals obtained at the same lag time point during a certain time period after sending the pulse signal for reference and identifies the reflected signals of the sent pulse signal for reference.

Method and device for distance measurement by pulse radar

A pulse radar apparatus uses different frequencies, for example, frequencies one of which is a multiple or a submultiple of the other for a signal which becomes a reference of a control pulse for controlling a gate operation for a reception signal and a signal which becomes a base of generation of a transmission pulse. As a result, even if noise is caused by the gate operation, its influence can be removed in the processing of reception signals having different frequencies.

Pulse radar apparatus

An embodiment comprises a unit generating a control pulse signal by delaying a basic signal in generating a transmission pulse, and a unit performing a gate operation on a received signal using the control pulse signal. Another embodiment comprises a unit generating a control pulse signal by delaying a signal generated using a first basic signal, a second signal for phase modulation having a lower frequency than the first signal, and a pseudo-random signal generated at an intermediate frequency between the frequencies of the first and second signals, and a unit performing the gate operation.

As to a beat signal of a received wave, for instance, a plurality of FFT-based frequency spectra of every FM rise zone are accumulated in an accumulation unit. A judgment unit judges a valley section from the plurality of frequency spectra accumulated. A peak frequency extraction unit acquires, as beat frequencies of different targets, respective beat frequencies of peak sections located at both sides of the valley sections judged.
