Abstract
Provided is a radar apparatus. The radar apparatus includes a controller configured to generate a variable delay control signal whose value varies with time, a clock generator configured to generate a transmission clock and a reception clock delayed by a delay time varying according to the variable delay control signal than the transmission clock, a transmitter configured to emit a transmission pulse through a transmission antenna based on the transmission clock, a first receiver configured to receive a first echo pulse that the transmission pulse is reflected from a target through a first reception antenna and configured to generate a first recovery signal corresponding to the first echo pulse based on the reception clock, and a second receiver configured to receive a second echo pulse that is the transmission pulse reflected from the target through a second reception antenna and configured to generate a second recovery signal corresponding to the second echo pulse based on the reception clock. The controller is configured to obtain a distance of the target based on at least one of a first delay time between the transmission clock and the reception clock corresponding to the first recovery signal and a second delay time between the transmission clock and the reception clock corresponding to the second recovery signal.
