    Abstract: A plurality of ultrasonic sensors are configured such that search ultrasonic waves transmitted from the respective ultrasonic sensors have mutually different characteristics that are mutually distinguishable. A transmission timing setting unit is configured to set a transmission timing of transmitting the search ultrasonic wave for each of the ultrasonic sensors, such that the plurality of ultrasonic sensors transmit the respective search ultrasonic waves at respective transmission timings that are mutually different. The transmission timing setting unit is configured to set a delay time between a first transmission timing, which is a transmission timing of the first ultrasonic sensor, and a second transmission timing, which is a transmission timing of the second ultrasonic sensor, with the delay time being determined based on a positional relationship between the first ultrasonic sensor and the second ultrasonic sensor.

    Abstract: A dual-band ultrasonic sensing apparatus for vehicles and a control method thereof. The dual-band ultrasonic sensing apparatus includes a first waveform transceiver configured to transmit and receive ultrasound in a first center frequency band, a second waveform transceiver configured to transmit and receive ultrasound in a second center frequency band higher than the first center frequency band, a processor configured to sequentially transmit and receive ultrasonic waves through the first and second waveform transceivers, to calculate each distance based on the result of transmission and reception by compensating for signal attenuation due to a difference in center frequency, and to calculate a final distance by determining whether to detect an obstacle through each calculated distance, and an output unit configured to output the final distance calculated by the processor.
