  • Publication number: 20230305135
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a transmission antenna, a reception antenna, and a signal processor. The transmission antenna is configured to transmit a transmission wave. The reception antenna is configured to receive a reception wave resulting from reflection of the transmission wave. The signal processor is configured to detect an object, with a constant false error rate, based on a transmission signal transmitted as the transmission wave and a reception signal received as the reflection wave, The signal processor selects, based on a maximum likelihood estimated value that gives a false alarm rate of signal intensity based on the reception signal, a reference cell disposed in a distance direction with respect to an inspection cell in a two-dimensional distribution of signal intensity, based on the reception signal, in the distance direction and a relative velocity direction.

  • Publication number: 20230046397
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an input interface, a processor, and an output interface. The input interface obtains observation data obtained from an observation space. The processor detects a detection target included in the observation data. The processor maps coordinates of the detected detection target as coordinates of a detection target in a virtual space, tracks a position and a velocity of a material point indicating the detection target in the virtual space, and maps coordinates of the tracked material point in the virtual space as coordinates in a display space. The processor sequentially observes a size of the detection target in the display space and estimates a size of a detection target at a present time on a basis of observed values of a size of a detection target at the present time and estimated values of a size of a past detection target.
