Abstract: A radar for a vehicle includes: an antenna including a nonlinear patch array; a transmitter to externally transmit a transmission signal through the antenna; a receiver to signal-process a reception signal received from the antenna; and a processor to control to operate a portion of the nonlinear patch array and control to change at least one of a direction, an angle, or an intensity of a beam pattern output from the antenna based on image related information from a camera during vehicle driving, wherein when the vehicle enters a curved road, the processor detects lane region based on an image from the camera, calculates curvature information of the curved road using a pixel value of the lane region, and controls to change a direction of a beam pattern output from the antenna based on the curvature information. The radar beam pattern is configured to vary based on the camera image.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a radar for a vehicle and a vehicle provided therewith. The radar for a vehicle, of the present invention, comprises: an antenna; a transmitter to externally transmit a transmission signal through the antenna; a receiver to signal-process a reception signal received from the antenna; and a processor to control at least one of a direction, an angle, or an intensity of a beam pattern output from the antenna based on image related information from a camera during vehicle driving. Accordingly, the radar beam pattern may be varied on the basis of the camera image.
