Abstract

An object detection radar apparatus is installed in a vehicle and is configured to detect an object. The object detection radar apparatus includes a transceiver configured to transmit a radar signal to the outside of the vehicle and receive a radar signal reflected from the object; a driving environment detector configured to detect a driving environment of the vehicle based on an operation status of the vehicle; an object detector configured to detect the object based on the received radar signal; and a controller configured to determine whether or not a predetermined event occurs based on the driving environment of the vehicle or a result of the detection of the object, and control signal characteristics of the transmitted radar signal or the received radar signal when the predetermined event occurs.
