Abstract
Disclosed is a collision warning unit configured to emit a detection signal into a surrounding area and to receive at least one signal component reflected at an object in the surrounding area, and, depending on the received signal component, to output a collision warning signal. The collision warning unit has a UWB (ultra-wideband) radar for transmitting the detection signal and receiving the reflected signal component.
Claims13
A collision warning unit configured to be integrated into a vehicle key and to emit a detection signal into a surrounding area at the vehicle key and to receive at the vehicle key at least one signal component reflected at an object in the surrounding area, and, depending on the received signal component, to output a collision warning signal,
- wherein the collision warning unit has comprises an ultra-wideband radar integrated therein for transmitting the detection signal and receiving the reflected signal component.
A method for collision warning, wherein a detection signal is emitted at a vehicle key into a surrounding area, and at least one signal component reflected at an object in the surrounding area is received at the vehicle key, and, depending on the at least one signal component received, a collision warning signal is output at the vehicle key,
- wherein the detection signal is output as an ultra-wideband signal by a ultra-wideband radar comprised in and integrated into the vehicle key, and the reflected signal component is captured by the ultra-wideband radar comprised in and integrated into the vehicle key.
