APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COMPENSATING FOR RETURN LOSS OF ANTENNA OF RADAR, AND RADAR APPARATUS USING SAME

摘要

The present disclosure relates to an antenna return loss compensation apparatus and method of a radar and a radar apparatus using the same. The antenna return loss compensation apparatus may include a compensation information calculator configured to calculate return loss compensation information for compensating for a frequency-band based antenna return loss, and a return loss compensator configured to apply return loss compensation information to a reception signal that is reflected from an object and is received, so as to generate a final reception signal, may calculate and store, in advance, compensation information for a return loss occurring in the antenna, may perform compensation associated with the magnitude of a reception signal when measurement is performed using the radar, so that the reception signal has the same magnitude, whereby a radar's performance deterioration attributable to the return loss of the antenna may be minimized.
