Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) System Description - System Diagram

Based on information on the leading vehicle from the millimeter wave radar, information from the relevant switches via F-CAN, and

information from the relevant sensors, the ACC system causes the multipurpose camera unit to send control and indication requests

to the management ECU, VSA modulator-control unit, and gauge control module via F-CAN to control the vehicle speed, brake, and

system indicators.

The system diagram of the ACC system is shown below.
