A small, light and low-cost on-vehicle radar which reduces noise caused by a road surface, own car and radar itself, prevents road clutter and improves detection performance is provided. The on-vehicle radar includes an antenna having one or a plurality of radiation elements which radiate linearly polarized waves, a slit plate provided with a plurality of slits on a metal plate disposed in front of this antenna surface and a foamed material provided between the antenna and slit plate. Side lobes whose principal component is a cross polarized wave from a feeder line of the antenna can be reduced and road clutter can be prevented. Resonance of slits whose characteristic frequency becomes equal to or smaller than the frequency of vehicle can be reduced and noise can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to obtain excellent detection performance as the radar apparatus.
