Original Abstract Submitted

According to one embodiment, a processing device includes a processor. The processor is configured to acquire first radar echoes from a plurality of first antennas, generate a first radar image by calculating a spatial correlation between the first radar echoes represented by complex numbers, acquire second radar echoes from a plurality of second antennas, generate a second radar image by calculating a spatial correlation between the second radar echoes represented by complex numbers, and generate a third radar image by applying at least one of a first synthesis method by synthesis of pixel values represented by complex numbers or a second synthesis method by image synthesis to the generated first and second radar images.
