Abstract
News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: “Modern vehicles which possess autonomous driving functiona lity require precise sensing of their immediate environment and beyond to be ope rated safely. This is often achieved by a variety of sensors, such as one or mor e radar sensors that are mounted to the vehicle body, e.g. behind a fascia eleme nt such as a vehicle bumper. “During the radar integration process (simulation and tests) of the vehicle’s de sign, the process are designed to ensure that the radar fulfils integrated senso r KIPs. Verification and correlation between simulation and test requires precis e measurements of radar sensor behaviour, as located behind a fascia, in an anec hoic chamber and at a distance from a radar target simulator (RTS). Important as pects for radar integration are, among other things, the placement, shape, thick ness, angles and distance of the car body parts (e.g. fascia/bumper) to the sens or. Many tests and simulations are typically performed for studies and calibrati on.
