  • Patent number: 10962640
    Abstract: A radar device derives, plurality of parameters according to a target and target detection distances, based of received signals that are acquired by receiving reflected waves, each of which is a radar transmission wave transmitted toward vicinity of an own vehicle and then reflected from the target existing in the vicinity. The radar device computes, from likelihood models in which first and second already-known correlations are modeled for each of the detection distances, an indicator based on likelihood ratios, which correspond to derived parameters and detection distances, of a stationary vehicle and upper object, in which the first already-known correlations correlate parameters and likelihoods of the stationary vehicle with each other and second already-known correlations correlate the parameters and likelihoods of the upper object with each other. The radar device performs a threshold determination on the computed indicators to determine whether the target is the stationary vehicle or upper object.

  • Patent number: 10718864
    Abstract: A radar device includes a signal processing unit and a target information output unit. The target information output unit outputs only pair data having addition reliability equal to or larger than a threshold to the outside of the radar device as target information. The signal processing unit determines whether a first target and a second target belong to the same object. The first target is pair data derived later than the second target. If it is determined that the first target and the second target belong to the same object, the signal processing unit transfers reliability of the second target to the first target.

  • Patent number: 10656115
    Abstract: A controller of an air-fuel-ratio sensor according to an embodiment includes a current supplying unit, a sweep processing unit, and an abnormality detecting unit. The current supplying unit supplies a current to the pump cell through a first terminal connected with the pump cell so as to control the pump cell. The sweep processing unit executes a sweeping process in which a predetermined voltage or a predetermined current is applied to the detection cell through a second terminal connected with the detection cell so as to change a voltage and a current of the detection cell. The abnormality detecting unit detects a short-circuited state between the first terminal and the second terminal on the basis of a fluctuation in a voltage or a current, generated by the sweeping process, of the first terminal.
