Abstract

Provided is an electromagnetic-wave detection apparatus capable of performing accurate detection of an electromagnetic wave. An electromagnetic-wave detection apparatus () includes a radiation system () configured to radiate an electromagnetic wave toward a space in which a target is present, a first detection unit () configured to detect a reflected wave that is the electromagnetic wave radiated by the radiation system and reflected by the target, a calculation unit () configured to calculate a distance to the target on the basis of detection information that is obtained by the first detection unit and that relates to the reflected wave, and a radiation control unit () configured to cause the radiation system to radiate the electromagnetic wave. The radiation control unit causes a first electromagnetic wave to be radiated and then causes a second electromagnetic wave with a greater output than the first electromagnetic wave to be radiated. The calculation unit calculates the distance to the target on the basis of the reflected wave of the first electromagnetic wave when the first detection unit becomes saturated with the reflected wave of the second electromagnetic wave.
