SYSTEM CONTROL

The dynamic radar cruise control system is controlled by the driving support ECU assembly. The driving support ECU assembly increases and decreases the vehicle speed by controlling the engine, MG2 and brake through the motive force request signals.
The combination meter sub-assembly informs the driver of the control conditions.
The cruise control switch (mode switch) is used for switching between constant speed control mode and vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode. The mode in which the cruise control system starts is the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode.
For vehicles with the dynamic radar cruise control system, constant speed control mode is controlled by the driving support ECU assembly, which outputs signals to the MG ECU.
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is controlled by the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly and driving support ECU assembly. Thus, the signals are output to the actuators and the ECU while exchanging data as indicated below.

Constant Speed Control
1. The driving support ECU assembly compares the actual vehicle speed (wheel speed signal from the skid control ECU) with the set vehicle speed under constant speed control in each control mode. When the actual vehicle speed differs from the set vehicle speed, the driving support ECU assembly calculates the motive force required to achieve the set vehicle speed and transmits motive force request signals to the hybrid vehicle control ECU, thus controlling the motive force optimally and adjusting the actual vehicle speed to the set vehicle speed.
2. In vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the driving support ECU assembly performs deceleration control or follow-up control or acceleration control based on the information about the vehicle ahead transmitted from the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly.
Deceleration Control
1. The driving support ECU assembly calculates the target deceleration rate in accordance with signals from the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly, and transmits a motive force request signal to the hybrid vehicle control ECU and the skid control ECU. Upon receiving this signal, these ECUs control the motive force and decelerate the vehicle.
2. This control is not performed in the presence of a parked vehicle or object, or below the settable vehicle speed range.
3. If the driving support ECU assembly determines that further deceleration is necessary, it transmits a brake request signal to the skid control ECU. Upon receiving this signal, the skid control ECU then activates the brake actuator to apply the brakes.
4. At this time, if the deceleration rate is higher than a predetermined value, the skid control ECU outputs a stop light illumination request signal to the stop light control ECU assembly, in order to inform anyone who might be following the vehicle.
5. If the vehicle is not decelerating adequately, the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly sounds the skid control buzzer assembly based on a request signal from the driving support ECU assembly. The buzzer is sounded to urge the driver to depress the brake pedal.
Follow-up Control
1. After performing deceleration control, the driving support ECU assembly transmits motive force request signals to the hybrid vehicle control ECU and the skid control ECU so that the vehicle can follow the vehicle ahead while maintaining the proper vehicle-to-vehicle distance. The actual distance maintained for each distance level (long, middle and short) varies in accordance with vehicle speed. Upon receiving these signals, these ECUs control the motive force in order to perform follow-up control.
2. 3 levels (long, middle, and short) of vehicle-to-vehicle distance can be selected by operating the distance control switch.
Acceleration Control
1. If the driving support ECU assembly detects that either the vehicle ahead or the driver has changed lanes, a motive force request signal is transmitted to the hybrid vehicle control ECU in order to attain the set vehicle speed. Upon receiving this signal, the hybrid vehicle control ECU controls the motive force of the engine and MG2 in order to perform acceleration control.

CONSTRUCTION

Cruise Control Switch

The cruise control switch consists of the ON-OFF button and the +RES, MODE, -SET and CANCEL switches. The +RES, MODE, -SET and CANCEL switches are operated by moving the lever in the 4 directions indicated.

The switches in the cruise control switch are of the automatic reset (normally open) type that turn on only when the switch is being operated and turn off as soon as the driver releases the switch. Furthermore, the functions of the switches are active only when the cruise control system has been turned on using the ON-OFF button on the cruise control switch.

Distance Control Switch

While the vehicle is being driven in vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance setting changes as follows each time the distance control switch is pressed; long → middle → short.

Text in Illustration

*1 Distance Control Switch - -
If the power switch is turned off and back to on (IG), the system will default to "long".

Text in Illustration
*1	Distance Control Switch	-	-

The vehicle-to-vehicle distance is as follows:

Mode	Vehicle-to-vehicle Distance*
Long	Approximately 50 m (160 ft.)
Middle	Approximately 40 m (130 ft.)
Short	Approximately 30 m (100 ft.)

Tech Tips

*: While driving at a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).

Millimeter Wave Radar Sensor Assembly

The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly consists of a millimeter wave radar circuit, signal processing circuit, and CPU.
The millimeter wave radar outputs waves when the vehicle speed is above 0 km/h (0 mph), and not when the vehicle speed is at 0 km/h (0 mph). The millimeter wave radar uses frequencies in the 76 GHz band.
The reception antennas receive the millimeter wave radar waves that have been reflected.

The signal processing circuit detects the distance, relative speed, and the direction of the object by generating millimeter wave radar waves and calculating the signals received by the reception antennas. Then, it transmits this information to the driving support ECU assembly.

Text in Illustration
*1	Millimeter Wave Radar Sensor Assembly	-	-
*a	Detection Distance: Approximately 150 m	*b	Horizontal Angle: About 20°
*c	Vertical Angle: About 8°	-	-

The distance to the object, azimuth, and relative speed are calculated from the information that is provided by the reflection millimeter wave radar as described below.

Item	Calculation Method
Distance	Calculated from the length of time that has elapsed from the time the waves of the millimeter wave radar have been emitted, until the reflected waves are received by the millimeter wave radar circuit. The detection distance is approximately 150 m (490 ft.).
Azimuth	Calculated from the reception angle of the millimeter wave radar reflections received. The detection angle has a horizontal range of approximately 20° and a vertical range of approximately 8°.
Relative Speed	Calculated by utilizing the change (Doppler effect*) that occurs in the frequency of the reflected millimeter wave radar waves.

Tech Tips

*: The Doppler effect causes the observer to perceive the radio waves emitted by a moving object to be a higher frequency as it approaches, and to be a lower frequency as it recedes. This phenomenon is created because when an object is located far away, the radio waves are perceived at higher frequency than those of the radio source.

Tech Tips

Millimeter wave radar uses an extremely high frequency band between 30 GHz and 300 GHz, with an extremely short wavelength between 1 and 10 mm (0.04 to 0.40 in.) in a vacuum. The millimeter wave radar sensor of the pre-crash safety system uses frequencies in the 76.5 GHz band.
The millimeter wave radar is less affected by weather conditions such as rain, fog, or snow, and provides excellent characteristics for recognizing objects. Therefore, it is well suited to the pre-crash safety system and the dynamic radar cruise control system.
An SST is used if radar axis adjustment is needed. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.

OPERATION

Combination Meter Sub-assembly

The combination meter sub-assembly has a cruise control indicator light (constant speed control mode), cruise control indicator light (vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode), cruise control SET indicator light, buzzer and display to provide warnings and regarding the dynamic radar cruise control system.
The multi-information display displays the set vehicle speed, vehicle ahead mark, and warning message.

Examples are shown below for the illumination or display of each indicator light or the multi-information display.

DIAGNOSIS

If a malfunction occurs in the dynamic radar cruise control system during cruise control operation, the driving support ECU automatically cancels speed control by the cruise control system, illuminates the master warning light, sounds a buzzer and displays "Check Cruise Control System" on the multi-information display to inform the driver of the malfunction. At this time, the driving supporte ECU memorizes the malfunction in the form of 5-digit Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
The 5-digit DTC can be read by connecting the Global TechStream (GTS) to the DLC3. For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
