Requirements
The Forward Looking Radar can be mounted on the front of the vehicle, or integrated behind a non-metallic body panel as long as the
mounting, alignment, and material requirements are met in the following sections.
Field of View Defi nition
The Forward Looking Radar (FLR) fi eld of view in elevation and azimuth is illustrated below. The grey area represents a cross-cut view of
the three-dimensional “No Radar Obstruction Zone”.
Using the illustration below, the diameter of the hole in front of the Forward Looking Radar can de determined. For materials within 30mm
of the FLR, the hole diameter must be greater than 70mm. For materials 40mm from the front of the FLR, the hole diameter must be
greater than 90mm.
Any hole diameter less than the required size, will effect a clear line of sight for the FLR unit.
