The invention discloses an automobile forward direction anticollision system signal processing method. In each frequency sweep cycle, the following processes which are performed on upper sweep frequency IQ data and lower sweep frequency IQ data of each channel comprise steps of performing fast Fourier transform FFT on N points of IQ data, performing adaptive threshold detection on transformed plural module value data after transmission, outputting an over-threshold point position, taking an interval between two points as a transformation interval, wherein one point is positioned before the threshold point position and the other one is positioned after the threshold point position, performing chirp-z transformation on M points, performing peak value searching on the data after chirp-z transformation, outputting a peak value point position, calculating a difference frequency and a phase according to the peak value point, outputting an object distance, relative radial speed and an azimuth according to the difference frequency and the phase output distance. The invention enables the system to respond fast through processing and optimizing the signal, is good in practicability and faster.
