Abstract: Provided is a quadrature demodulator capable of appropriately correct an amplitude error and a quadrature error even with respect to a pulse-modulated signal. In the quadrature demodulator 100, in order to compensate an amplitude error and a quadrature error, the phase adjuster 112 is provided in the local oscillation unit 110, and the quadrature detection error detector 131 and the quadrature detection error compensator 132 are provided in the signal processing unit 130. The quadrature detection unit 120 outputs two sets of I and Q-components of an RF signal using two LO signals that have been phase-shifted by the phase adjuster 112. In the quadrature detection error detector 131, an amplitude error and a quadrature error are calculated using the two sets of I and Q-components. The quadrature detection error compensator 132 compensates a received signal using the amplitude error and the quadrature error.

Abstract: There is provided an in-vehicle pulse radar that permits to detect information on an object accurately by temporally separating a noise signal mixed into a receiving signal by applying a delay time with a simple configuration. A baseband signal down-converted by a frequency converter (152) is output to a signal processing section (102) through a board-to-board connector (103) after passing through a delay circuit (153). Still further, a control signal is output to a switching circuit (151) from a control signal generating section (162) through the board-to-board connector (103). The delay circuit (153) increases a time lag from when the control signal passes through the board-to-board connector (103) until when the baseband signal passes through the board-to-board connector (103) by applying a predetermined delay time to the baseband signal. Thereby, the baseband signal receives no interference from the control signal.

Abstract: A radar device capable of removing noise signals before digital conversion and detecting an object with high precision by a simple configuration is provided. In a transmitting RF unit 110, a signal switch 141 is switched so that the noise signal generated by the operation of a first switch 111 passes through a signal delaying device 142. The signal switch 141 is switched so that the noise signal generated by the operation of a second switch 112 passes through a signal delaying device 143. Furthermore, the signal switch 141 is switched so that a baseband pulse signal obtained when the first switch 111 and the second switch 112 are operated at the same time passes through a signal delaying device 144. In a signal synthesizer 145, synthesizing is carried out so that the noise signals mixed in pulse signals are cancelled out.
