term
active vehicle elements
standard (extract)
term
brake
definition

part in which the forces opposing the movement of the vehicle develop

NOTE 1 to entry It can be a friction brake (when the forces are generated by friction between two parts of the vehicle moving relatively to one another); an electrical brake (when the forces are generated by electro-magnetic action between two parts of the vehicle moving relatively but not in contact with one another); a fluid brake (when the forces are generated by the action of a fluid situated between two parts of the vehicle moving relatively to one another); an engine brake (when the forces are derived from an artificial increase in the braking action, transmitted to the wheels, of the engine).

NOTE 2 to entry Definition according to ECE-R 13-H, transmission control devices are not considered as brakes.

standard (extract)
term
LCDAS target vehicle
definition

any vehicle that is closing on the subject vehicle from behind, or any vehicle that is located in one of the adjacent zones

standard (extract)
term
heavy vehicle category
definition

single vehicle or combination of vehicles defined as Category 1-2 or Category 2 in the United Nations Economic and Social Council World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP.29) TRANS/WP.29/1045

NOTE 1 to entry A truck is in the heavy vehicle category.

standard (extract)

term
articulated vehicle
definition

any road vehicle with more than two wheels that is configured for normal road use with at least two segments, and for which each adjacent pair of segments is connected by a joint, and for which propulsion is provided by at least one segment

standard (extract)
term
slow moving object
definition

object in front of the subject vehicle that is moving at less than MAX [1,0 m/s, 10 % of the subject vehicle speed] in the direction of the centreline of the subject vehicle

standard (extract)
term
slow moving vehicles
definition

vehicle travelling at or below “A” km/h within a traffic flow

NOTE The value for “A” is to be determined according to the road configuration and speed limit.

standard (extract)
term
potential vehicle of interest (PVOI)
definition

connected vehicle that exists in the V2V CACC region of interest, communicates with the subject vehicle, is of possible interest to the longitudinal control, and is not the target vehicle (TV)

standard (extract)

term
subject vehicle (SV)
definition

vehicle equipped with a system related to the topic of discussion

standard (extract)
term
forward ranging sensor
definition

component which detects objects in at least part of the region entirely ahead of the front bumper

standard (extract)
term
cut-in vehicle
definition

forward adjacent vehicle that has a lateral component of motion towards the path of the subject vehicle

standard (extract)
term
bordering vehicle
definition

vehicle that limits the parking slot to the rear or the front

standard (extract)
term
sensor
definition

component that detects objects in the monitoring range

NOTE There are a variety of sensor principles listed below which could be used. The most common principle is the flight time measurement (e.g. radar, lidar, sonar). Active sensor elements create a pulsed or continuously modulated field of microwaves, (infrared) light, or ultrasonic sound. The reflected energy due to an object in the detection area is received, and the distance to the object is measured. The lateral position of the object is estimated based on the beam or field directional characteristics, or based on the timing relationships between sensors with overlapping coverage areas. Alternative principles include distance measurement by triangulation principle and passive sensor systems using image processing.

standard (extract)
term
stationary object
definition

object in front of the subject vehicle which is stationary

standard (extract)
ISO 15622, 20035
term
stopped vehicles
definition

vehicle that has stopped in a traffic lane or on the shoulder of the roadway

standard (extract)
term
truck-tractor
definition

heavy single-chassis vehicle providing propulsion, control, and crew (driver) accommodation, with the primary purpose of controlling and transporting one or more separate load-carrying trailers

standard (extract)
term
unit truck
definition

heavy single-chassis vehicle providing its own propulsion, control, and crew (driver) accommodation, with a significant cargo or other payload section

standard (extract)
term
obstacle vehicles
definition

vehicles, both moving and stationary, considered potential hazards that can be detected by this system

EXAMPLE Motor vehicles only, that is cars, trucks, buses, and motorcycles.

standard (extract)
term
APS vehicle
definition

vehicle which is equipped with APS

standard (extract)
term
forward adjacent vehicle
definition

vehicle not in the path of the subject vehicle (SV), and entirely ahead of a line touching the SV front bumper at only one point and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the SV

standard (extract)
term
forward vehicle (FV)
definition

vehicle in front of and moving in the same direction and travelling on the same roadway as the subject vehicle

standard (extract)
term
test object
definition

object with a specific material, geometry and surface for testing the monitoring range

NOTE This test object should give comparable results for the relevant sensor types.

standard (extract)
term
target vehicle (TV)
definition

vehicle that the subject vehicle follows which may or may not be equipped with a connected vehicle device
