An FM-CW radar system comprises a modulating signal generating means for changing a modulating signal to be applied to a FM-CW wave, a calculating means for calculating a distance or relative velocity with respect to a target object by performing processing for detection by fast-Fourier transforming a beat signal occurring between a transmitted signal and a received signal, and a control means for determining a detection range based on the calculated distance, and for performing control to change the modulating signal, wherein the modulating signal is changed by changing one parameter selected from among a modulation frequency, a triangular wave frequency, and a transmit wave center frequency. The detection range is set to a distance obtained by adding a prescribed distance to the shortest distance detected, or to a distance obtained by subtracting a prescribed distance from the distance of a fixed object. <IMAGE> |
