Abstract

A signal processing apparatus is mounted in a moving body and performs a process for measuring an object present in a vicinity of the moving body. The apparatus sets an intensity threshold corresponding to an intensity distribution based on at least one measurement signal periodically generated, and extracts at least one target peak that is a peak that is greater than the intensity threshold in the intensity distribution, using an upper limit number set in advance as an upper limit. The apparatus stores, in a storage unit, the number of extracted peaks that is the number of the at least one target peak extracted, and sets the intensity threshold so as to suppress the number of the at least one target peak in a new intensity distribution from exceeding the upper limit number, based on the number of extracted peaks in a previous intensity distribution stored in the storage unit.
