PURPOSE:To obtain a detection signal whose S/N ratio is good by means of a correlation detection processing operation whose constitution is simple regarding a detection apparatus wherein a correlation with a promised waveform is utilized. CONSTITUTION:A transmission waveform circuit 21 generates a promised waveform such as a monocyclic pulse or the like at each fixed-cycle trigger signal 1A; transmitted electromagnetic waves 4 corresponding to it are radiated toward an underground buried object 7A via a transmitting antenna 3. Reflected electromagnetic waves R from the underground buried object 7A are input to a multiplication circuit 11 as a receiver signal 10A via a receiving antenna 9 and an amplifier 10. A variable delay circuit 12 generate a delayed signal 12A which is delayed cumulatively by a unit delay amount. A correlation signal circuit 13 outputs the same waveform as the promised waveform at each delay signal 12A by shifting the wave by the unit delay amount; it outputs it as a correlated signal 13A. A multiplication circuit 11 multiplies the correlated signal 13A by the received signal 10A; a multiplied signal is integrated 14; an integrated signal 14A is sampled at a prescribed part of the correlated signal 13A.
