Abstract
An electronic scanning radar apparatus mounted on a moving object includes a receiver unit including a plurality of antennas receiving a received wave arriving from a target having reflected a transmitted wave, a beat signal generating unit generating a beat signal from the transmitted wave and the received wave, a frequency resolving unit resolving the beat signal into beat frequencies having a predetermined frequency bandwidth and that calculates complex data based on the beat signal resolved for each beat frequency, and an azimuth detecting unit estimating a wave number of the received wave based on singular values calculated from a matrix created based on the complex data calculated based on the beat signal and calculating a direction of arrival of the received wave based on coefficients calculated based on a pseudo-inverse matrix of the matrix included in a signal subspace determined by the estimated wave number.
