            Abstract : 
High range-resolution radar using ultra wideband radio attracts considerable attention as short range vehicle radar. Since it provides high range-resolution to the multiple scatters that constitute a vehicle target, range glint is improved and the ranging accuracy will be improved as compared with that of a low-resolution radar system. However there is no paper regarding the ranging error. In this paper we conducted the measurements and discussed the ranging errors for various bandwidths.
