Claims13
A radar apparatus comprising:
- a transmission antenna unit including a plurality of transmission antennas;
- a transmission antenna grouping unit configured to group the plurality of transmission antennas by a predetermined number of transmission antenna groups such that the transmission antenna groups by the predetermined number of transmission antenna groups are arranged and formed at a predetermined transmission antenna group interval;
- a reception antenna unit including a plurality of reception antennas arranged at a reception antenna interval which is determined based on the number of transmission antenna groups and the transmission antenna group interval;
- a signal transmission/reception unit configured to transmit a signal through the transmission antenna groups by the number of the transmission antenna groups and receive a signal when the transmitted signal is reflected through the plurality of reception antennas;
- and
- an object sensing unit configured to sense an object based on the received signal.
