Abstract

The idea of incorporating radar systems into vehicles to improve road traffic safety dates back to the 1970s. Such systems are now reaching the market as recent advances in technology have allowed the signal processing requirements and the high angular resolution requirements from physically small antennas to be realised. Automotive radar systems have the potential for a number of different applications including adaptive cruise control (ACC) and anti-collision devices. This paper summarises recent developments in test methods that have been made to satisfy the compliance requirements for emissions and immunity.
