Abstract

The conventional ESPRIT method is accompanied by the problem of very long signal processing time. The radar device of the invention includes a signal vector-forming unit for forming signal vectors based on waves reflected from an object and received by using a plurality of receiving antennas; a submatrix-forming unit for forming submatrices based on the signal vectors; a regular matrix operation unit for calculating a regular matrix from the submatrices; an eigenvalue decomposition unit for calculating an eigenvalue of the regular matrix; and an angle calculation unit for calculating an angle at where the object is present from the eigenvalue.
