  • Publication number: 20230410657
    Abstract: A target detection device includes a fusion processing unit that processes fusion and outputs a prediction value of a target after fusion, a false detection estimation unit that estimates false detection for each target based on an observation value and a prediction value and outputs a false detection estimation result, a false detection probability calculation unit that calculates a false detection rate for each sensor based on the false detection estimation result, and a reliability correction unit that corrects reliability of a sensor defined in advance based on the false detection rate and outputs the corrected reliability. The fusion processing unit processes fusion based on the prediction value, the false detection estimation result, and the corrected reliability.

  • Patent number: 11837436
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a waveform generating device includes a first DA converter converting input data, a controller outputting a first signal having a command value based on the input data, and a second signal having a command value differing by a constant value from the first signal, a second DA converter converting the first signal, a third DA converter converting the second signal, and a combiner combining the output of the first DA converter, the output of the second DA converter, and the output of the third DA converter. When a value of a predetermined first high-order bit of the input data is inverted, the controller changes the command value of the first signal such that a value of the first high-order bit or a second high-order bit different from the first high-order bit is inverted.

  • Publication number: 20230146620
    Abstract: An arithmetic device includes: an input unit to which information pertaining to a detection target that is a target recognized by a sensor is input from the sensor; a processing-unit allocation unit that is configured to allocate a plurality of the targets to any one of a plurality of groups; an association unit that is configured to retrieve a second one of the targets to be associated with a first one of the targets from a part of the plurality of groups included in the plurality of groups; and a state fusion unit that is configured to fuse the first target and the second target that have been associated with each other by the association unit to produce a tracking target that is a target being tracked. The first target is any one of the detection target and the tracking target. The second target is any one of the detection target and the tracking target.

  • Patent number: 11171395
    Abstract: An object is to provide a transmission line having an air bridge structure in which grounding conductors of a transmission line are connected by wiring and which is stable in terms of mechanical strength by lowering an electrostatic capacitance in a region where the wirings connecting the central conductor and the grounding conductor intersect with each other. The transmission line includes a substrate, a first central conductor and a second central conductor that are formed on a surface of the substrate, a third central conductor that has a first erection portion and a second erection portion erected on the surface, and a first grounding conductor and a second grounding conductor. The transmission line further includes a third grounding conductor connecting the first grounding conductor and the second grounding conductor. The third central conductor and the third grounding conductor form an air bridge structure.

  • Patent number: 10998280
    Abstract: Provided is a balance-unbalance converter including: a substrate; an unbalanced line; a first balanced line; and a second balanced line on the substrate. The unbalanced line has a first end at which an unbalanced signal is input, and an opened second end. The first balanced line is in parallel with a line portion of the unbalanced line from the first end to a midpoint of the unbalanced line, and has a midpoint-side third end at which a balanced signal is output, and a grounded fourth end. The second balanced line is in parallel with a line portion of the unbalanced line from the second end to the midpoint, and has a midpoint-side fifth end at which the balanced signal is output, and a grounded sixth end. The unbalanced line is bent at the midpoint toward an opposite side of the first and second balanced lines.
