Abstract
A target object detection device is provided. The device includes an antenna unit for transmitting a detection signal in an observing direction at a predetermined detection cycle and receiving a reflection signal of the detection signal, a receiver for outputting reception data obtained by sampling the reception signal that is received by the antenna unit, a detection data generator for outputting detection data obtained by correlating current reception data with previous detection data, and a detection cycle adjuster for adjusting the detection cycle based on the detection data.
