Abstract :
A new system concept for Automatic Cruise Control (ACC) is introduced which is able of covering a wide field-of-view and offers the ability of high azimuth resolution for the detection of several object within one range cell. The system makes use of digital beamforming on-receive-only to simplify the hardware requirements and to facilitate the use of high efficiency processing techniques.
