Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Warnsystem in Kraftfahrzeugen zur Erhöhung der Verkehrssicherheit, bei dem eine Fahrzeug-Fahrzeug-Kommunikation zwischen einem Sendefahrzeug (3) und Empfangsfahrzeugen (9 bis 14) stattfindet, wobei das Sendefahrzeug (3) verschiedene Kalibriersignale mit untereinander abgestufter Sendeleistung aussendet und die Anzahl empfangbarer Kalibriersignale im Empfangsfahrzeug (9 bis 14) zur Entfernungsschätzung herangezogen wird.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a warning system in motor vehicles for increasing traffic safety, in which vehicle-to-vehicle communication takes place between a transmitting vehicle (3) and receiving vehicles (9 to 14), the transmitting vehicle (3) transmitting various calibration signals with a graduated transmission power and the Number of calibration signals that can be received in the receiving vehicle (9 to 14) is used to estimate the distance.
