As a method of suppressing the occurrence of this ghost, a part of the shared dome is made of a material having a good transmission characteristic in two frequency bands of infrared rays and microwaves, and the rest is excellent in a transmission characteristic only in the microwave band and is opaque to infrared rays. A method of constructing with a material (for example, alumina) can be considered. However, a material opaque to infrared rays radiates infrared rays (black body radiation) when the temperature rises. That is, since the temperature of the shared dome rises and infrared rays are radiated due to aerodynamic heating caused by the flying object flying at high speed, there is a problem that the target signal-to-noise ratio of the infrared sensor deteriorates and the target is lost. .
