Abstract
A radar apparatus is provided, which includes an approaching velocity calculating module configured to calculate an approaching velocity of a target object from which a reflection wave caused by an electromagnetic wave is obtained, based on a change in one of phase and frequency of the electromagnetic wave transmitted and received by a radar antenna, the approaching velocity being a velocity component in a transmission direction of the electromagnetic wave, a tracking determining module configured to determine whether to track the target object based on the approaching velocity of the target object, a tracking module configured to automatically track the target object determined to be tracked by the tracking determining module, and a display controlling module configured to display the tracking result of the tracking module along with a radar image.
