Radar apparatus and moving object equipped with radar apparatus

A moving object comprising:

• a vehicle body;
• and
• a radar apparatus mounted on the vehicle body,
• wherein
• the radar apparatus includes
• transmission signal generation circuitry that generates a transmission chirp,
• a transmission antenna that transmits the transmission chirp,
• a reception antenna that is configured to receive a reflected wave, from an object to be detected, of the transmission chirp transmitted from the transmission antenna,
• a mixer that mixes the transmission chirp and a reception chirp received by the reception antenna to generate an intermediate frequency signal, and
• signal processing circuitry configured to perform processing on the intermediate frequency signal,
• wherein
• the signal processing circuitry is configured to
• obtain, for a plurality of respective analysis periods corresponding to different frequency bands of the transmission chirp, frequency spectral waveforms of the intermediate frequency signal, and
• determine, based on variations in peak position among the plurality of frequency spectral waveforms, whether a peak is due to a target for detection that is present within a field of view.
