Abstract: A signal processing device is provided, which includes a pulse compressing module configured to generate a pulse compressed signal obtained by performing pulse compression on a reception signal that is a reflection of a transmission signal transmitted to outside the device, a pseudo signal generating module configured to generate, based on the reception signal, a pseudo signal of which a pseudo main lobe portion corresponding to a main lobe of the pulse compressed signal has a lower signal level than signal levels of pseudo side lobe portions corresponding to side lobes of the pulse compressed signal, and a side lobe removing module configured to remove the pseudo signal from the pulse compressed signal.

Abstract: A radar apparatus for performing pre-distortion is provided, which has a configuration instantly transmittable of a transmission signal without distortion even in a case where a power is turned off. A radar apparatus (pulse compression radar) calculates a correction coefficient based on a transmission signal before distortion occurs therein and a transmission signal (feedback signal) outputted by a power amplifier. The radar apparatus corrects the transmission signal outputted by an ideal transmission signal memory while taking into consideration distortion that is caused in the amplification by the power amplifier, by using the correction coefficient. The radar apparatus includes a non-volatile memory configured to store the calculated correction coefficient as backup.
