  • Patent number: 11269070
    Abstract: A radar apparatus includes a transmitting array antenna that transmits signals orthogonal to one another from a plurality of transmitting antennas, a receiving array antenna that receives the signals reflected from a target by a plurality of receiving antennas, and a signal processing unit that detects the target from reception signals received by the plurality of receiving antennas. The signal processing unit includes a correlation matrix calculation unit that determines a first correlation matrix corresponding to the transmitting array antenna and a second correlation matrix corresponding to the receiving array antenna, on the basis of the reception signals separated by a separation unit, and a detection unit that detects the target on the basis of an evaluation value calculated using eigenvectors of the first correlation matrix and the second correlation matrix.
