ABSTRACT:
A radar for detecting a target wherein a standard deviation of the amplitude of a beat signal from a transmission signal and a reception signal is determined for a predetermined period. A threshold is determined by adding a predetermined value to the standard deviation or by multiplying the standard deviation by a predetermined coefficient. The presence or absence of interference on the beat signal is detected according to the presence or the absence of an amplitude greater than the threshold. For example, an amplitude exceeding the standard deviation×2 is considered a spike noise (SPN), i.e., as “presence of interference”. The threshold used for detecting peaks appearing on a frequency spectrum is then increased. This allows detection of the presence or the absence of a spike noise superposed on the beat signal to be performed more certainly, thereby enabling processing according to the presence or the absence of interference.
