Abstract: A slot array antenna includes a waveguide and a horn. The waveguide has a first surface including multiple slots arranged along a longitudinal direction of the first surface to radiate radio waves. The width of the first surface in the lateral direction is greater than half of a wavelength of the radio waves. The horn, fixedly attached to the waveguide, enlarges towards a radiation direction of the radio waves. The horn has upper and lower portions bent inwards twice with respect to a lateral direction of the first surface to form first and second narrow openings. An opening width of the first narrow opening is less than the width of the first surface. An opening width of the second narrow opening is less than or equal to two fifth of the wavelength. Thus, a side lobe generated due to horizontal polarization of the radio waves is suppressed.

Abstract: A radar signal processing device includes: a shielding length calculating unit (61) which calculates, based on a reception signal received by an antenna that transmits and receives radio waves, a shielding length (L2), which is the horizontal length of a region where a transmission signal transmitted from the antenna is shielded by a shielding object (13) above a reference plane; and a vertical height calculating unit (62) which calculates, based on the shielding length and the positional relationship between the shielding object and the antenna, the height (H2) of the shielding object from the reference plane.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a carriage unit including a liquid ejecting head and reciprocating in a scanning direction; a liquid container; and a tube supplying liquid sent from the liquid container to the carriage unit. When the carriage unit moves, in a case in which one direction is referred to as a first direction and another direction is referred to as a second direction, the tube extends from the liquid container in the second direction, forms a curved portion curving toward upstream in a transport direction of a medium, is folded back in the first direction, and is coupled to the carriage unit. The carriage unit includes a space that expands in the transport direction upstream of an area in which a portion extending from a coupling start point of the tube toward the curved portion is displaced in accordance with movement of the carriage unit.

The tube includes a movable portion which forms a curved portion which curves toward downstream in the transport direction and which causes a formation position of the curved portion to move and a fixed portion which is not movable. The holding section is disposed between the fixed portion and a scanning region of the carriage in the transport direction.

Abstract: When one of directions in which a carriage moves is a first scanning direction, and the other one of the directions is a second scanning direction, a tube extends in the first scanning direction, is bent in the second scanning direction with a curved portion, and is coupled to the carriage. The tube has a first portion, which is an immovable portion that does not move as the carriage reciprocates, and a second portion, which is a movable portion that moves as the carriage reciprocates. The first portion is fixed to a mounting plate, which is an example of a fixing section, the tube and a supporting member are held together by a holding member, and the mounting plate has a stepped portion, which is an example of a contact preventing portion configured to prevent contact with the holding member holding the movable portion of the tube.
