Abstract
An electronic device includes a transmission antenna that transmits a transmission wave, a plurality of reception antennas that receive a reflected wave that is the transmission wave having been reflected, and a signal processing unit that detects an object with a subspace method, based on a transmission signal transmitted as the transmission wave and a reception signal received as the reflected wave. The signal processing unit estimates a direction of arrival of the reflected wave, based on solutions of an algebraic equation Root-MUSIC Polynomial (hereinafter referred to as 'RMP solutions') in a Root-MUSIC method that satisfy a first requirement and a second requirement in terms of positions of the RMP solutions in a complex plane. The first requirement is a requirement related to a distance between a unit circle and each of the RMP solutions in the complex plane. The second requirement is a requirement related to a distance or an argument between at least two adjacent RMP solutions among the RMP solutions in the complex plane.
