ADVANCED EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING BRAKE THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed is an advanced emergency brake system that performs an emergency brake if a target is situated at a location close to a vehicle. The emergency brake system includes a radar sensor; a camera; an ultrasonic sensor for detecting an object situated at a close distance from the vehicle; and an electronic control unit that outputs a predetermined alarm control signal or performs an emergency brake depending on the input from the radar sensor, the camera, and the ultrasonic sensor. The emergency brake system disclosed herein can perform emergency brakes even when a target outside the angle of view of the radar sensor or the camera abruptly intervenes. Also disclosed is a method for controlling a brake with the emergency brake system.

1. An advanced emergency brake system that performs an emergency brake if a target is situated at a location close to a vehicle by using a radar sensor and a camera installed in the vehicle, the advanced emergency brake system comprising:
an ultrasonic sensor for detecting an object situated at a close distance from the vehicle; and an electronic control unit that, if determining that a distance from a target situated on a lateral side of the vehicle falls within a predetermined distance according to an acquisition signal detected by the ultrasonic sensor, outputs a predetermined alarm control signal, and if determining that the target is present within the angles of view of the ultrasonic sensor and the radar sensor or within the angles of view of the camera and the radar sensor, performs an emergency brake.
