The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a radar control device and method. Specifically, a radar control device according to the present disclosure may include an antenna unit including one or more transmission antennas and one or more receiving antennas, a transmitter for transmitting a radar signal toward an object using the transmission antenna, a receiver for receiving a reception signal reflected from the object using the receiving antenna, and an object detector configured to determine a track for an detected object based on the reception signal, detect an object around a host vehicle based on the determined track, and, if a traveling speed of the host vehicle is less than or equal to a predetermined speed and the detected object is plural, classify a preceding vehicle and a clutter based on the reception signal.

A driving assist ECU acquires, based on an image, positions of at least two specific points of an object that are different in a lateral direction with respect to a vehicle traveling direction. The driving assist ECU also performs collision avoidance control for avoiding a collision with the object based on a movement track of the object obtained from a history of the positions of the specific points, and calculates, for each of the specific points, a movement direction of each of the specific points based on the history of the position of each of the specific points. The driving assist ECU then changes how to perform the collision avoidance control based on a difference between the movement directions at the respective specific points.

A controller for a communication and ranging apparatus wherein the apparatus is configured to transmit both a data signal and a ranging signal, wherein the controller is configured to: determine a scheduled transmission event of the data signal; determine a scheduled transmission event of the ranging signal; determine if the scheduled transmission events will occur within a predetermined time window of each other; if it is determined that the scheduled transmission events will occur within a predetermined time window of each other, then determine a priority signal and a secondary signal, wherein: the priority signal is one of the data signal and the ranging signal; and the secondary signal is the other of the data signal and the ranging signal; and provide signaling configured to prevent the scheduled transmission event of the secondary signal from being transmitted such that only the scheduled transmission event of the priority signal is transmitted.

Provided is a vehicle capable of efficient storage medium management by differentially storing images acquired by the vehicle on the basis of a surrounding environment of the vehicle and a vehicle state, and a control method thereof. The vehicle includes a storage, a camera configured to acquire a vehicle surrounding image of a vehicle, a sensor unit configured to acquired vehicle information of the vehicle, and a control unit configured to determine an accident occurrence probability of an accident occurring to the vehicle on the basis of at least one of the vehicle surrounding image and the vehicle information, and in response to determining that a collision has occurred to the vehicle on the basis of the vehicle information, determine a storage form of the vehicle surrounding image on the basis of the accident occurrence probability and store the vehicle surrounding image in the storage.

The present invention relates to a system and a method for correcting position information of a surrounding vehicle, which provide accurate position information of a surrounding vehicle by correcting the position information of the surrounding vehicle received through vehicle-to-vehicle communication, and identifies a license-plate number of a front vehicle through a sensor mounted in a vehicle, calculates a position of the front vehicle, and compare position information, which is included in information including the identified number of the front vehicle in information received from the surrounding vehicle, with the calculated position of the front vehicle to correct the position information of the surrounding vehicle.

Disclosed is an electronic device for vehicles included in a vehicle that functions as a lead vehicle during platooning, the electronic device including a processor configured to classify acquired information based on the use thereof, upon determining that the information is first information used in platooning, to assign processing of the first information to a first processor, and upon determining that the information is second information used in monitoring of a platoon, to assign processing of the second information to a second processor.

Examples disclosed herein relate to an autoencoder assisted radar for target identification. The radar includes an Intelligent Metamaterial (“iMTM”) antenna module to radiate a transmission signal with an iMTM antenna structure and generate radar data capturing a surrounding environment, a data pre-processing module having an autoencoder to encode the radar data into an information-dense representation, and an iMTM perception module to detect and identify a target in the surrounding environment based on the information-dense representation and to control the iMTM antenna module. An autoencoder for assisting a radar system and a method for identifying a target with an autoencoder assisted radar in a surrounding environment are also disclosed herein.

A driver assistance system for a vehicle having a decision engine and a plurality of active object-detection sensors including two radar sensors mounted at opposed locations on the vehicle relative to a longitudinal centerline of the vehicle. A field of view of each radar sensor is directed away from the centerline and forward of the vehicle and overlaps with the field of view of the other radar sensor in a region of overlap crossing the centerline forward of the vehicle. The decision engine receives signals from the sensors and determines the presence of an object in the regions of overlap on the basis of signals from only each of the two radar sensors among the active object-detection sensors of the system. The decision engine is thus able to command vehicle functions such as braking or acceleration on the basis of the determination.

Tools are provided to assisting in the driving of a given vehicle in motion. Memory and a processor are provided. The processor is configured and interoperable with the memory, a transducer driver, and the given vehicle's driving control system. An object transducer carried by the given vehicle is driven in order to detect another moving vehicle in a detection area at a detection distance away from the given vehicle. Notification messages sent from other vehicles are received. The notification messages include a too close notification message sent from one of the other vehicles. A determination is made, based at least in part on the too close notification message sent from the one of the other vehicles, when the given vehicle is positioned in relation to the other moving vehicle such that the given vehicle should be driven differently. The given vehicle automatically takes remedial action upon the determination that the given vehicle is too close to the other moving vehicle.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a subject vehicle (1) travelling along a road behind a vehicle transmitting wireless signals representative of at least one parameter affecting the velocity and/or acceleration of the transmitting vehicle (2), the method comprising—receiving said wireless signals from the transmitting vehicle (2), —controlling (S6) the velocity and/or acceleration of the subject vehicle (1) in dependence on the received signals, —during said control (S6) in dependence on the received signals, monitoring (S3) by means (111) other than means for wireless communication a distance (DSF) between the subject vehicle (1) and a further vehicle (3) travelling between the subject vehicle (1) and the transmitting vehicle (2), —and determining in dependence on the monitoring of the distance (DSF) between the subject vehicle (1) and the further vehicle (3) whether or not to control (S5) the velocity and/or acceleration of the subject vehicle (1) in dependence on the monitored distance (DSF).
