List of Terminology

Product Overview

The Mid-Range Radar (MRR) described here is part of the family of ICON™ Digital Radar sensors offered by Magna Electronics. The MRR radar is part of our ADAS platform concept, based on 5 Mid-Range radars – located in the front bumper and all 4 corners of the vehicle – that are designed to enhance vehicle safety systems; support multiple ADAS features and various autonomous driving functions.

Product Application Examples

The MRR object, border and environmental detection are used in support of the many ADAS system features, some of the available functionality is shown below:

1. Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)/ Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
   AEB/FCW is a SAFETY feature which alerts the driver followed by automatic deceleration in case if a potential threat could lead to vehicle-to-vehicle collision.
   

2. Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
   BSD is an ALERT feature that provides optical alert to driver if there is a vehicle in the blind spot of the Ego vehicle on either side or fast closing target.
   

3. Pedestrian & Bicycle Collision Warning/Mitigation
   Safety feature that alerts the driver followed by automatic deceleration in case of a potential threat that could lead to vehicle-to-pedestrian collision in forward direction
   

4. Rear Cross Traffic Alert/Brake (RCTA/RCTB)
   RCTA/B is a SAFETY feature that prevents collision due to driver distraction or unforeseen events while vehicle moves in reverse direction by providing alert followed by braking if situation becomes critical.
   

Typical Installation

The radar is typically installed in the positions of the vehicle depicted in Figure 1. The unit is mounted behind the front/rear bumper of the vehicle.
