Tasks 

The Active Brake Assistant controller unit detects obstacles and vehicles moving immediately ahead and warns the driver about a possible collision.

If the Active Brake Assistant controller unit detects a risk of collision, it initiates autonomous brake application.

This results in the following tasks for the Active Brake Assistant controller unit:

Reading in input factors 

The Active Brake Assistant controller unit receives the following input factors via periphery CAN (CAN PER), among other things:

The resulting functions are described in the respective function descriptions (see also the appropriate block diagram or function schematic).

Evaluation of input factors 

The input factors are evaluated by the microprocessor and the corresponding assembly parts are actuated.

Transmission of initial parameters 

The Active Brake Assistant controller unit sends the following initial parameters via periphery CAN, among other things:

The functions that use these signals are described in the individual function descriptions (see the appropriate block diagram or function schematic).

Structure 

The Active Brake Assistant controller unit contains the following assembly parts:

Properties of the radar sensor:

IMPORTANT The Active Brake Assist controller unit must be newly adjusted after being replaced (e.g. after an accident repair) via the integrated "service adjustment mode."
