  • Patent number: 11069987
    Abstract: A radar device includes: reception array antennas each including virtual antennas constructed from plural transmission antennas and plural reception antennas; and a transmission control unit which controls transmission waves transmitted from the transmission antennas, the plural transmission antennas include: a first transmission antenna group having at least two of the transmission antennas that are spaced from each other by a prescribed first interval; and a second transmission antenna group having at least one of the transmission antenna that is spaced, by a prescribed second interval, from a synthesized antenna that is the first transmission antenna group as regarded as a single antenna; and the transmission control unit is capable of switching between: a first mode and a second mode as defined herein.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7859450
    Abstract: In a detection and ranging apparatus that performs direction-of-arrival estimation using a sensor array and that enlarges an effective aperture using a plurality of transmitting sensors, adverse effects associated with time division switching are eliminated, achieving high-accuracy measurement. A transmitter wave is spread in modulators by using mutually orthogonal codes, and the resulting transmitter waves are radiated from two transmitting sensors. Signals received by receiving sensors are each split by a splitter into two parts, which are then respectively despread in a demodulator by using the same codes as those used in the transmitter.
