<p>A radar apparatus (1) comprises a reception antenna (9), a pulse width detecting part (e.g., a detector (141)), a memory (13), a comparing part (e.g., a comparator (142)), and an output part (15). The pulse width detecting part detects the pulse width of a reflected pulse signal obtained from a reflected wave received by the reception antenna (9). The memory (13) stores correspondence information between type information indicative of the types of objects to be detected and pulse width information related to the pulse widths of reflected pulse signals obtained when the types of the objects are detected. The comparing part compares each pulse width information stored in the memory (13) with the pulse width detected by the pulse width detecting part, and selects the type information corresponding to the pulse width information indicative of the detected pulse width. The output part (15) outputs the type indicated by the type information selected by the comparing part.</p> |
