Abstract
In an automotive radio wave radar, a center frequency of a transmitted wave is shifted at a certain cycle, and position information of an obstacle detected at three or more center frequencies is subjected to decision by majority to determine whether detection results of the obstacle are erroneous with the occurrence of jamming. If any of the detection results is determined to be abnormal, the abnormal result is discarded. An automotive radio wave radar is realized which can correctly perform the obstacle detection even in the event of jamming without causing erroneous obstacle detection or omission of the detection.
