Measuring procedure
The rugged ARS 404-21 sensor from Continental measures independent the distance and velocity (Doppler’s principle) to objects with-
out reflector in one measuring cycle due basis of FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) with very fast ramps, with a real time
scanning of 20 / sec.. A special feature of the device is the simultaneously measurement of great distances up to 170 m, relative velocity
and the angle relation between 2 objects.
› Anti-collision protection for vehicles of every description › Fast and safe: The ARS 404-21 dispels with the apparent
(particul. autonomous) contradiction between excellent great measuring performance
and a high degree of operational safety.
› Headway control also for far range The rugged ARS 404-21 radar sensor is capable of determining
(vehicles of every description, particularly autonomous) the distance to an object in real time scanning and dependent
on the driving speed a possible risk of collision.
› Area monitoring system for far range, e.g. of hazardous or
non-accessible areas › Reliable: The ARS 404-21 radar sensor is fail-safe and able to
recognize troubles of the sensor and sensor environment and
› Classification of objects display it automatically.
› Object detection, e.g. in confusing or unclear areas › Robust and very small design: By using a radar technology
with less complex measuring principle and the development
› Unremarkable object detection by affix a protection cover and mass production in automotive supply industry, the design
before it (radome) is kept very robust and very small.

Miscellaneous
Measuring principle (Doppler‘s principle) in one measuring cycle due basis of FMCW with very fast ramps independent measurement of
distance and velocity
The version -21 allows to set maximum 8 ID’s and maximum 8 collision avoidance regions and to change the sensitivity between low and high
sensitivity by the user continuously
Interfaces: The device is fitted with one CAN bus interface. Further interfaces as converter, software adaption are possible on demand and in
case of assumption of costs.
A special software version supports a measurement range up to 1000m (For objects with high RCS and free field of view)
