1. An object detection apparatus mounted to a vehicle, comprising:

  • a transmitter that transmits a probe wave in pulse form;

    a receiver that receives a reflected wave of the probe wave;

    a filter that passes, among the received reflected wave, only frequencies that are at least smaller than a pulse frequency of the probe wave;

    a threshold calculator that, based on an output of the filter, calculates an objection determination threshold for determining presence and absence of an object; and

    an object determinator that determines the presence and absence of the object by using the objection determination threshold calculated by the threshold calculator.
