Patent number: 9151835Abstract: A detection information memory stores, for each object, detection information that includes a distance to and a traveling speed of an object for each predetermined timing detected by a radar apparatus which detects detection information on the object, and the radar apparatus detects the detection information by receiving a reflected wave of an irradiated radar wave from the object. A predictor predicts, for each object, the detection information to be newly detected by the radar apparatus from a history of the detection information. A tracker tracks the object by identifying the object which is the target of the detection information newly detected using a result of the predictor; a determiner determines whether the object is a fixed object or a moving object. An output unit outputs the detection information on the object determined to be the moving object by the determiner.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2013Date of Patent: October 6, 2015Assignee: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Junko Kajiki, Mitsuru Ochi, Tomonori Ikeya, Kazuhiko Shite

Patent number: 9134408Abstract: Two radar devices are installed for adjacent lanes. A memory sequentially stores a received power value at a time when the two radar devices receive the reflected wave from a vehicle at specified time intervals. A calculator calculates, when a vehicle moves in a direction approaching the two radar devices, as a representative value of the received power at a specified time, a weighted average value when weights, which become heavier as an acquisition time of the received power value becomes farther from the specified time, are assigned to a specified number of received power values, whose acquisition time is prior to a specified time, where a priority is given to the received power values whose acquisition time is close to the specified time. A discriminator determines a lane in which the vehicle is traveling according to a result of comparing the sizes of the calculated representative value.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2013Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Mitsuru Ochi, Junko Kajiki, Tomonori Ikeya, Kazuhiko Shite
