Rear Radar
Area Monitored by the Radar Sensor
The area monitored (on each side of the vehicle) includes
the side and rear. The side area extends from the rear
corner of the vehicle to about the level of the B-pillar.
The illustration above shows the sensor monitoring area
on a straight road. On winding roads, the Blind Spot
Monitoring system operates up to a minimum curve radius
of about 558 ft (1 70 m). If the curve radius is below the
558 ft limit, the system switches to a deactivated state since
the radar beams being transmitted can no longer scan the
full rear monitoring area.
This deactivation threshold has a lag of 98 ft (30 m). This
means that the system, deactivated because of a short
curve radius, is reactivated only once a radius of more than
655 ft (200 m) is reached.
Approximately 164 ft (50 m)
Detection Areas
The control module calculates the path of the road from
the yaw rate and the individual wheel speeds from ABS
Control Module J104.
When driving on winding roads, the curved monitoring
area is converted by the software to the image of a
straight road. This way, the basis for the warning algorithm's
decision to warn the driver or not remains the same on a
straight road or when driving around bends.
