Abstract :
Innovations in the fields of radar and digital signal processing have made use of the radar in low cost mass market applications possible. The most fruitful mass market for radars in the near future will be in the automotive field. There are numerous potential applications such as Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), speed-over-ground sensors, parking aids, height sensors for active suspension, blind spot warning systems and, in the longer term, obstacle detection systems. This paper describes an ICC system in some detail and looks briefly at the other applications
