A radar device which is installed in a vehicle or the like needs to detect a target at a short distance from several tens of centimeters to several tens of meters and, therefore, has a problem that a reflected wave from the target may be reflected by a front case of the radar device and then reflected by the target again to be received as a secondary echo by itself. To solve this problem, it is an object of the present invention to provide a radar device again that can prevent multi-reflection to accurately measure a distance to a target in a short range. In a radar device according to the present invention, a surface of a frame body provided around a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna is shaped so that a reflected wave from a target may not be returned in a direction in which a transmitting wave is transmitted from the transmitting antenna.
