The release of R & ampS' new 4D automotive radar target simulator has accelerated the arrival of the autonomous driving era.

Easy car news on August 5, Rod and Schwartz (R&; S) The brand-new 4D automotive radar Target Simulator is listed in Beijing. With its cutting-edge innovative certification and testing scheme, it provides customers with complete testing services from parts to vehicle testing, from R&D, production to certification, ensuring the safety and reliability of autonomous driving and helping the future development of China Intelligent Networked Vehicle.

Sensors are an important part of autonomous driving. Can passenger cars be unmanned in 2025? It takes time and trust, and there must be a comprehensive test scheme for the new sensors of self-driving cars.

The new 4D automotive radar target simulator introduced by Rod and Schwartz company combines the experience of German automobile industry with the requirements of Chinese automobile standards and market testing, and can test the RF performance and functional characteristics of automotive radar, Hardware-in-the-Loop and Vehicle-in-the-Loop. In this way, it will assist parts suppliers and vehicle manufacturers to develop high-performance automotive millimeter-wave radar that can work normally in complex traffic and bad weather.

"Rod and Schwartz's new 4D automotive radar Target Simulator takes the unmanned test service to a new level. The system can simulate various driving scenarios, and can test the radar in advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) and self-driving car (AD) through air interface. RTS test system includes a host R&S areg 800 a automotive radar simulator and front-end R&S; S QAT 100 RF antenna array. "

At this new product launch conference, Rod and Jin, Senior Director of Products and Systems Department of Schwartz (China) Technology Co., Ltd., introduced the new products and features. "The system can simulate a simple AEB automatic emergency braking scene into a complex traffic scene with multiple radar sensors, which greatly reduces the time cost and capital cost of radar function test and meets the application requirements of automatic driving safety; It is a target simulator that can generate dynamic radar echoes, and can be used in all stages of automotive radar sensor testing, including research and development calibration testing, hardware-in-the-loop testing with ADAS/AD system installed on vehicle, and vehicle-in-the-loop testing. Users can combine any number of R &;; S QAT 100 RF antenna array front end and r&; S AREG800A host, easy to configure the test of the whole system. "

At the press conference, Mr. Yao Yao, a senior engineer of automatic driving scene construction from China Automobile Zhilian, and Mr. Shen Jie, a virtual test technology expert from AVL Liszt Company, also introduced application cases respectively.

As a technology-driven company, Rod and Schwartz have always adhered to the strategy of high investment in research and development, and have a very deep technical accumulation in the communication industry and the automobile industry. Using the technology accumulated behind the communication industry, the company has developed a targeted intelligent sensor test scheme and a vehicle Ethernet test scheme supporting high-speed data transmission.

At the same time, Rod and Schwartz have developed and provided many solutions in line with the development trend of automotive electronics industry, such as 5G car networking, automotive radar, high-precision car navigation, car Ethernet, electromagnetic compatibility and so on. , covering all stages from development, certification testing to production; It also includes testing solutions for parts and vehicles at all stages of development.

China market is one of the most important markets for Rhodes and Schwartz, and the 4D automotive radar target simulator launched this time will meet the needs of automotive intelligent testing in more application scenarios. Next, Rod and Schwartz will continue to plan products and road signs in a forward-looking way, and provide customized intelligent networked car services and solutions for customers in China.
