Radar is a detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain. A radar system consists of a transmitter producing electromagnetic waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna (often the same antenna is used for transmitting and receiving) and a receiver and processor to determine properties of the object(s). Radio waves (pulsed or continuous) from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to the receiver, giving information about the object's location and speed.

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.
