OBSTACLE DETECTION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an obstacle detection device for a vehicle capable of preventing erroneous detection that a road structure such as a curbstone is a target.SOLUTION: An obstacle detection device for a vehicle includes a radar device 4 which is provided between the rear surface of a bumper 6 and a wheel 2 on at least either the right or left of a vehicle and detects an obstacle by transmitting a radio wave in the outer direction. In this device, an erroneous detection prevention means 7 is provided which prevents the erroneous detection from being caused by road structure arrival waves α which are reflected back from the road structure after part of transmission waves from the radar device 4 arrive at the road structure on outside of the vehicle.
