  • Patent number: 8810446
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a radar device includes a radio module, a pulse compressor, a Doppler filter processor, a signal processor, an integration processor, an estimation module and a target detector. The radio module receives a plurality of received pulses corresponding to transmission pulses transmitted from a transmitter. The integration processor generates third data by integrating first data generated at the signal processor with second data generated based on first data obtained by a previous scan. The estimation module estimates a position at a time of a next scan based on the third data to generate second data. The target detector detects a target based on the third data.

  • Publication number: 20120306684
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a radar equipment includes a signal processor, a first and second estimation module and an integration module. The signal processor generates first data based on range bin data. The first estimation module estimates a present position of a target based on second data, and shifts the second data to the estimated position to generate third data. The second estimation module estimates the present position based on first data of an nth previous scan, and shifts the first data of the nth previous scan to the estimated position to generate fourth data. The integration module adds the third data to, and subtracts the fourth data from first data obtained by the present scan to generate second data.

  • Publication number: 20120256780
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a radar equipment includes a radio transmitter, a pulse compressor, a Doppler filter, and an integration processor. The radio transmitter receives pulse signals and digitizes the received pulse signals by oversampling with a frequency higher than that for generation of a pulse compression coefficient to generate digital data. The pulse compressor performs pulse compression on the digital data using the pulse compression coefficient to generate range bin data for each of the pulse signals. The Doppler filter processor performs Doppler filter processing on the range bin data. The integration processor integrates the range bin data subjected to the Doppler filter processing for each range bin.
