MAGNA MRRICONV03 ICON Mid Range Radar User Manual
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:
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.
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.
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
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 units are mounted behind the front bumper and front and rear
corner fascia of the vehicle.
Hardware Description
The RADAR assembly consists of one PCB supporting all the electrical components and an RF Antenna assembly. The radar assembly is mounted between the radiomen (plastic front housing) and the aluminum back housing; the entire assembly is secured using screw
