Abstract. Automotive UWB (Ultra-Wideband) short range radar (SSR) is on the market as a key technology for novel comfort and safety systems. SiGe based 79 GHz UWB SRR will be a definite candidate for the long term substitution of the 24 GHz UWB SRR. This paper will give an overview of the finished BMBF joint project KOKON and the recently started successing project RoCC, which concentrate on the development of this technology and sensor demonstrators. In both projects, the responsibilities of Daimler AG deal with application based sensor specification, test and evaluation of realized sensor demonstrators. Recent UWB SRR frequency regulation approaches and activitites will be introduced. Furthermore, some first results of Daimler activities within RoCC will be presented, dealing with the packaging and operation of these sensors within the complex car environment.
This paper gives an overview on recent development trends and future European initiatives in the area of automotive e-Safety. Short range radar (SRR) for novel safety and comfort systems being fostered by the SARA initiative has paved the way for more advanced ITS systems like stability control for heavy duty vehicles (HDV) or e-Call. The obstacles to make it happen, possible solutions, and the resulting benefits are discussed.
