Abstract
A vehicle-mounted device includes an interference determination unit and a sensor control unit. The interference determination unit determines whether an interference state where a first electromagnetic wave ranging sensor equipped to a first vehicle may receive a second transmission wave transmitted from a second electromagnetic wave sensor equipped to a second vehicle is present, based on transmission time frame information received by a first wireless communication device equipped to the first vehicle, and reception duration information indicating a reception duration during which a first electromagnetic wave ranging sensor equipped to the first vehicle may receive a first reflected wave. The sensor control unit controls transmission timing for transmitting the first transmission wave from the first electromagnetic wave ranging sensor and a reception duration, and changes the transmission timing and the reception duration to avoid the interference state, when the interference determination unit determines that the interference state is present.
