Abstract
False detection of a ghost is prevented. A radar apparatus includes: transmission circuitry, which, in operation, transmits a radar signal; main reflective object detection circuitry, which, in operation, detects a main reflective object in a detection area using a reflected wave of the radar signal; in-area determination circuitry, which, in operation, determines a main area where a ghost caused by a reflective object outside the detection area and the main reflective object is located, the main area being inside the detection area; and auxiliary reflective object detection circuitry, which, in operation, detects a position of an auxiliary reflective object in the main area using a reception signal of the reflected wave of the radar signal, the auxiliary reflective object being located farther than the main reflective object on an extension of a line connecting the radar apparatus and the main reflective object.
