  • Patent number: 11977146
    Abstract: To provide a radar device capable of detecting a position of a target in a direction orthogonal to a viewing angle. In a radar device which detects a target by using a radio wave, the radar device includes: a receiving array antenna (receiving array antenna 17) where a plurality of receiving antenna elements (first receiving antenna 17-1 to eighth receiving antenna 17-8) each having a predetermined length in a first direction are arranged to be disposed in a second direction almost orthogonal to the first direction; a dispersion part (dispersion part 31) which is disposed in a vicinity of the receiving array antenna, and dispersion properties of the radio wave change with respect to the first direction; and a detection part (control and process part 15) which detects the position of the target in the first direction based on the radio wave reflected by the dispersion part.

  • Publication number: 20220286824
    Abstract: Provided are a resin container and a wireless communication system with which it is possible to efficiently manage the state of a wireless communication device installed in an underground space. A resin container 5 for accommodating cables such as a communication line 6 and an electric power line 7 comprises a container body 52 having an opening 51 that opens upward, a lid for closing off the opening 51, and a wireless tag 3 serving as an information processing device positioned in the lid 53 or the container body 52 and capable of wirelessly communicating with a terminal 40 serving as an external apparatus. The wireless tag 3: acquires, from a wireless communication device 2 positioned in the inside of the container body 52, information that relates to the maintenance of the wireless communication device 2; holds said information; and transmits said information relating to the maintenance to the terminal 40.

  • Publication number: 20220231398
    Abstract: This housing unit is provided with: a first resin container that houses therein a wireless base station to which a cable is connected; and a second resin container that is disposed anterior or posterior to the first resin container in the direction in which the cable extends, and that has the interior thereof connected with the interior of the first resin container. The first resin container is provided with a drainage part comprising: a crown section that has a height position higher than a boundary portion and a boundary portion with the second resin container; and a curved surface and a curved surface where the height position becomes increasingly lower from the crown section towards the boundary portion and the boundary portion, and meanwhile, the second resin container has a drain-receiving part which has a height position lower than the boundary portion and the boundary portion, and which is for receiving drainage water from the drainage part.

  • Patent number: 11187781
    Abstract: A pulse generating device of an in-vehicle radar configured to output a high frequency pulse including a main lobe and a side lobe includes a high frequency oscillator that generates a carrier wave of a predetermined frequency, an output variable device that adjusts an output of the high frequency oscillator, a power measuring unit that measures the output of the high frequency oscillator, a temperature measuring unit that measures an ambient temperature, a baseband pulse generating unit that generates a signal of a pulse shape, and a modulator that modulates the output of the high frequency oscillator with the signal of the pulse shape, and, when the ambient temperature is a first threshold value or less, the output or the pulse shape is adjusted so that the side lobe is a predetermined output or less.
