Collision Mitigation Systems With Adjustable Trigger Width

摘要

A vehicle collision mitigation system (2) and method having a detecting device (3) and a control unit (4). The detecting device (3) being arranged to detect a certain field of view (6) defining a trigger area having an adjustable trigger width that is defined by trigger borders (9a, 9b; 10a, 10b) and is adjustable between a minimum trigger width (wmin) and a maximum trigger width (wmax). The collision mitigation system (2) is arranged to issue a system trigger signal at least in dependence of an object being determined to at least partly being present within the trigger borders if a collision is predicted to occur. The adjustable trigger width (w) is adjustable in dependence of the number of system trigger signals that have been issued during a certain time period.

1. A vehicle collision mitigation system comprising a detecting device and a control unit, the detecting device being arranged to detect a certain field of view, the field of view including a trigger area having an adjustable trigger width that is defined by a plurality of trigger borders, where the adjustable trigger width is adjustable by the control unit between a minimum trigger width and a maximum trigger width, where the collision mitigation system is arranged to issue a system trigger signal at least in dependence of an object being determined to at least partly being present within the trigger borders, wherein the adjustable trigger width is adjustable in dependence of the number of system trigger signals that have been issued during a certain time period.
