Abstract
A detector includes: a detection unit including one or more transmitting elements configured to transmit a frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) type transmitted electromagnetic wave, two or more receiving elements configured to receive a reflected electromagnetic wave obtained by the transmitted electromagnetic wave being reflected by a target, a calculation unit configured to calculate a distance to the target and an angle of arrival of the reflected electromagnetic wave using the transmitted electromagnetic wave and the reflected electromagnetic wave, and a position determination unit configured to determine a position of the target using the distance and the angle of arrival; and a detection region setting unit configured to set a predetermined region including the position as a detection region in a detectable range in which the target is to be detected. The detection unit executes detection in the detection region set by the detection region setting unit.
