Location 

The front near and long-range radar sensor is located in the center, in front of the radiator.

Task 

The near and long-range radar sensor has the following tasks:

The control electronics integrated in the near and long-range radar sensor actuate the long range radar and evaluate the target data. The object data from the long range radar are transferred from the front near and long-range radar sensor via the chassis FlexRay (Flex E) to the Intelligent Drive control unit.

This results in the following tasks for the near and the long-range radar sensor:

Reading in input factors 

The near and long-range radar sensor transmits and receives the following input signals via the chassis FlexRay:

Evaluation of input factors 

Input factors are evaluated by the integrated control electronics.

Actuation of assembly parts 

The near and long-range radar sensor actuates the near and long-range radar sensor heating (R61/1) over a direct line (pulse width modulated).

Transmission of initial parameters 

The near and long-range radar sensor transmits and receives the following input signals via the chassis FlexRay:

Body 

The near and long range radar sensor contains control electronics for actuating and evaluating the long range radar.

Properties of the near and long range radar sensor:

IMPORTANT The near and long-range radar sensor must be readjusted using the integrated "Service Adjustment Mode" after replacement (e.g. after an accident repair).
