In the research project Ko-TAG, which is part of the research initiative Ko-FAS, cooperative sensor technology is developed and its benefit for traffic safety applications is evaluated. As a result, the new sensor concept shall provide essential input data for next generation driver assistant systems. A secondary radar principle based on communication signals enables localization of objects with simultaneous data transmission. In addition to the measured position of an object essential parameters that cannot be measured directly are transmitted. As localization is possible even under Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions, the amount of scenarios addressed by present safety applications is increased and even new applications can be added. The cooperative sensor system consists of a localization unit integrated into vehicles and cooperative transponders. The transponders are carried by vulnerable road users (VRUs), attached to other vehicles or used as infrastructure elements for robust selflocalization of a vehicle equipped with the localization unit.
