چکیده
This paper gives an overview of the application of radars in the automotive field in general. A number of Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) functions are described, and the special requirements of the automotive business are considered. Singleand multi-sensor setups are discussed. A new sensor category, a so-called Medium Range Radar (MRR: 40m) is introduced. The application-driven need for this kind of radar, filling the gap between short range radars (SRR: 15m) and long range radars (LRR: 150m) is explained. Concept, technical data and results of such a high performance MRR sensor are given.
