Since the early 70s, various radar systems for avoidance or mitigation of automobile collisions have been proposed in various countries around the world. The installation of collision avoidance systems in automobiles faces a number of technological problems, especially discrimination of potentially hazardous objects on the roadway from objects on the roadside or in adjacent lanes on curves. The authors have developed a short-pulse modulated microwave radar with a microprocessor and, on the basis of experiments and road tests, have confirmed its effectiveness in solution of the above problems. The paper outlines development of this radar system and compares its basic characteristics with those of radar systems developed by other companies. Future trends for automotive radar equipment are also discussed.
