Abstract :
The inter-vehicles communication is becoming increasingly mandatory to improve the road safety and to allow a better transport management. The concept behind an intelligent vehicle consists in equipping this vehicle with an optimum number of sensors, in order to perceive the environment surrounding it and to ensure an automatic guidance control and the communication with the infrastructure and other vehicles. Among the most often used tools for this objective, we can cite the embedded radar.
