PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This system is designed to provide the Blind Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross
Traffic warning features as defined by the ISO17387. It relies on two standalone 24GHz narrow band
radar sensors located in the rear corners of the vehicle. This radar complies with the low power 24 GHz
narrow band regulations (also known as low power non-specific short range or “ISM”) of most countries
such as European CEPT community, USA, Canada, China, Brazil and Japan.
The sensor has two modes of operations: It operates in a Blind Spot Detection & Lane Change Assist
mode when the vehicle is in forward gear or standstill and switches to a Rear Cross Traffic Alert mode
when the vehicle is operating in reverse. The sensor generates three different waveforms. Blind Spot
Detection is optimized for very near range detection (sub 10m), Lane Change Assist is optimized for
mid-range up (70m) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert is optimized for short range detection (40m).

Sensor is sealed by LASER Welding the cover with the plastic housing during manufacturing and
cannot be disassembled without permanent and visible damages to the structure. The sensor has no
serviceable parts and therefore is not repairable.

INTEGRATION AND MOUNTING GUIDELINES
This chapter describes the characteristics relevant to the installation of NB-SRR sensors in the bumper.
In addition general specifications are mentioned, which have to be followed for each position to enable
sufficient sensor performance. Therefore the following guidelines are to be observed carefully.
6.1.
Attachment to the vehicle
The sensor slides in a plastic bracket. The bracket is attached either to the vehicle chassis structure or
directly to the plastic fascia of the vehicle. The connector must face towards the rear of the vehicle to
ensure the performance characteristics listed in Table 1.
Figure 6 : Bracket Retention Features
6.2.
Detection Range / Azimuth Angle Measurement Range
Figure 8 displays the detection area of the NB-SRR sensor. One should differentiate between the
detection area of the sensor and the angle measurement area. The angle measurement area is
reduced to ±50° around bore sight whereas the detection area is as wide as ±65° in azimuth. Within the
detection area of the antennas there must not be metal parts like screws, mounting brackets, license
plate etc. The impact reducing foam material, clips or fascia laminations has to be avoided in that area.
The azimuth keep out zone is shown in Figure 9. If the azimuth keep out zone is not followed, then the
performance of the sensor will be degraded. Consult Autoliv for guidance if the azimuth keep out zone
is violated.

Figure 7 : Azimuth Detection zone
Figure 8 : Azimuth keep out zone
6.3.
Detection Angle Elevation
The detection angle of ±10° is related to the 3dB points of the elevation transmit pattern; this means the
area where the signal amplitude is reduced by 3dB compared to bore sight direction. To avoid close
range false objects there must not be metal parts like screws, mounting brackets, license plate, etc. in
an angle of ±30° (see figure 10). Impact reducing foam material, clips or fascia laminations must be
avoided in this area.
Figure 11 shows details of objects keep out zone for both azimuth and elevation.

Installation Guidelines For Individual Sensors
6.4.1
Distance to bumper fascia
The distance of the NB-SRR sensor to the bumper shall be between 5 and 20 mm in front of the
antennas.

Page 12 of 16
Effect Of Type- And Thickness Of Fascia Material
Autoliv has examined various fascia material samples with a thickness of 2.5 – 4 mm. For those
samples, the radar signal is attenuated by 0.5 – 2 dB (corresponds to reduction of the range of
coverage of 2 – 11%). Impact reducing material (foam) causes additional attenuation, especially when
water is absorbed. Therefore, there shall be no impact reducing material in the antenna areas as
described in 6.2 – 6.3. There shall also be no metallic parts, snap-on contacts, clips or double wall
laminations in the antenna areas as described in 6.2 – 6.3.
Fascia loss effects can be minimized by proper control of the material thickness and dielectric constant.
Autoliv recommends the analysis of sample materials to determine the dielectric constant and proper
thickness for optimal performance. Thickness and dielectric constant must be controlled to a tolerance
of ±10% max to ensure optimal performance. Please consult Autoliv with prospective fascia
configurations to assess potential performance impacts.
6.4.3
Effect of the paint
Depending upon the type of paint, number of coatings, base coats used, etc., the attenuation of the
radar signal due to the paint varies roughly between 2 and 5 dB (corresponds to reduction of coverage
between 11 and 25%). Because attenuation has significant impact on performance, prior inspection of
the material and paint samples are suggested.
Autoliv recommends the characterization of painted fascia samples to determine the radar signal loss
effects. Autoliv sensor specifications assume a maximum signal loss (2-way) of 4 dB due to fascia
effects. Materials and paints that exhibit greater than 4 dB loss will degrade the specified performance.
As noted in 6.4.2 performance can be optimized by proper control of the fascia material thickness and
dielectric constant.
New fascia, paint material or process by the OEM should be submitted to Autoliv for characterization.
6.4.4
Smoothness of Fascia in Front of Antenna
Avoid sharp vertical or horizontal character lines in front of sensor antenna. Horizontal character lines
have less of an effect on sensor performance.

Feature installation guidelines
The sensors should be located in the optimal location for best overall coverage and range performance.
The optimal locations will be dependent upon the specific application and the bumper characteristics.
6.5.1
Sensor Connector Orientation
The Sensor connector orientation must be oriented rearward.
6.5.2
Vehicle Coordinate System
Figure 8 shows the coordinate system used for identifying sensor position in a multi-sensor application.
The arrows indicate positive values. The most forward location on the front bumper was selected as
reference point. The Z-axis is the vertical axis. Z-values are indicated from the ground surface.

Figure 13 : Vehicle coordinate system
6.5.3
Identifying the Sensor Position
Figure 16 represents typical positions for REAR mounted Sensors on a vehicle bumper.
The left and right sensors are inter-changeable and the sensors have an addressable pin in the
vehicle connector that is used to logically identify the sensors position to the system. A
GROUND or OPEN connection from the vehicle harness to this particular contact pin dictates the
Sensor’s position on the vehicle to the system. The address pin of the right sensor must be
grounded while the address pin of the left sensor must remain unconnected.

Y-direction recommendation
The Y location of the sensors will determine the extent of the rear side Blind zone coverage. The
location selections are highly dependent on the desired application and bumper dimensions. Bumper
features (chrome trim, badges, etc.) may not allow this while maintaining the guidelines of section 5. In
this case the locations should be as close to the ideal locations as possible while meeting the
requirements of section 5. A measurement check is required to verify the actual installation
implementation.
6.5.5
X-direction recommendation
In general, the X locations will be dictated by the contour of the bumper and the installation guidelines
of section 5. However, each sensor should be located as far rearward as possible while maintaining
other packaging requirements (radome to fascia B-side, angle, etc.).
6.5.1
Sensor Azimuth Angle (X-Y Plane)
Each sensor shall be angled 50° +/-1deg rearward.
6.5.2
Elevation Angle recommendation
Preferably, the elevation angle of the sensors shall be 0 deg [+1° / -1°] with respect to the ground
(sensor white cover surface perpendicular (90°) to the ground).
