Driver assistance system e.g. adaptive cruise control system, for motor vehicle, has mechanism predicting elevation profile of roadway based on navigation system data, where system implements assistance functions based on predicted profile

摘要

The system has an interface (20) to a navigation system (18) and a mechanism (22) for prediction of elevation profile of the roadway based on the data of the navigation system. The system is formed in such a manner to implement assistance functions (14, 16) based on the predicted profile, where the assistance functions have a function to control the driving speed to a target speed and a distance controlling function.
