Abstract

Receivers 14 and 16 comprise mixers 14b and 16b for mixing reception signals of receiver antennas 14a and 16a with a transmission signal to generate beat signals B1 and B2, respectively. Signal processing section 20 performs the Fourier transformation of beat signals B1 and B2 supplied from receivers 14 and 16 to obtain the phases of beat signals B1 and B2 and then obtain the azimuth based on the difference of these phases.
