Abstract
An object detection apparatus detects an object in a vicinity of a moving body in a state of being mounted to the moving body. The object detection apparatus measures a reverberation frequency that is a frequency of a reverberation signal that is generated in a transceiver that externally transmits a transmission wave that is an ultrasonic wave and receives a reception wave that includes a reflected wave of the transmission wave from the object. object detection apparatus detects the object based on the reception wave. The object detection apparatus sets at least one of a transmission characteristic and a reception characteristic in the transceiver. The object detection apparatus sets at least one of transmission characteristics of the transmission wave and/or sets circuit characteristics in the transceiver. The object detection apparatus reduces at least one of the transmission characteristic and the reception characteristic during measurement of the reverberation frequency.
