System function
Camera unit of the LKA processes below function with the video signal inputted
1. |
LKA (Lane Keeping Assist) : The system is designed to help recognize
the lane ahead and to give off a lane departure warning when the vehicle
starts moving out of the lane by using the camera image and vehicle signal
information.
|
2. |
High Beam Assist (HBA) : Detects head lamp and tail lamp lights of vehicle
ahead and turns the high beam ON/OFF.
|
3. |
Intelligent Speed Limit Warning (ISLW) : Detects traffic signs by using
the camera and displays the speed limit by using the map data from navigation.
|
4. |
It supports Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) systems.

System Activation Conditions
LKA Controller Typical Operating Conditions |
Note that operating conditions are tuned to meet the customer requirements .
– |
Vehicle speed within 60 kph – 175 kph
|
– |
A lane is clearly visible.
|
– |
Driver is not overriding the system – applying a large steering torque
|
– |
Directional (including hazard) signals are off.
|
– |
The lane width is within 2.8m to 4.3m
|
– |
The driver’s hands are on the steering wheel.
|
– |
The absolute steering angle is < a given value (e.g 90 degrees).
|
– |
The maximum allowable time for maximum torque application has not been
exceeded. (90 seconds)
|
– |
Reverse or EPS city mode is not engaged.
|
– |
No fault is present in the system.
|
Activation conditions for HBA are as follows:
– |
HBA is activated when the light switch is at 'AUTO' and the high beam
switch is ON (push).
|
– |
HBA is activated when the function is enabled and the vehicle speed is
45 km/h or higher, and automatically deactivated when the vehicle speed
is 35 km/h or less.
|
– |
HBA is not activated in daytime even if the activation conditions are
satisfied.
|
– |
In nighttime, HBA detects the preceding vehicle's lamp light and automatically
turns the high beam on or off.
|
Activation conditions for DAA are as follows:
– |
The function should be enabled on the User Setting Menu (USM) of the
cluster.
|
– |
The function should be enabled and the vehicle speed should be 60 km/h
- 175 km/h.

Repair procedures
Service Point Target Auto
Calibration (SPTAC) |
This procedure provides a way to calibrate the camera by having the service technician
align the car to a well lit simulated straight road target; preferably wall mounted.
The LKA camera will have a "System Out of Calibration" DTC set if not operating
within specified tolerances.
The LKA will be supplied for field service replacement with the "System Calibration
Required / Variant Coding Error" DTC set if it is a replacement part delivered directly
from supplier manufacturing.
1. |
Guidelines for Selecting a Suitable Target
In order for LKA Service Calibration-Static routine to complete successfully,
the following conditions are required:
– |
Target (SST : 09890-3V100) surface is perpendicular to the camera
in both horizontal and vertical orientations to maintain maximum
of 1° roll.
|
– |
Target to be mounted to rigid backer material to maintain flatness
requirements.
|
– |
Target has reflective (not faded or poorly painted) markings
that are unlike from lane features.
|
– |
Target is 30 cm wide and 100 cm tall.
|
– |
Mounting area must NOT have cross hatch patterns or textual markings
near the target.
|
– |
Target should be well lit for optimal performance using non-fluctuating
illumination. There shall be no continuous shadows cast on the target.
|
|

Service Point Target Auto Calibration Procedure
(1) |
It is recommended to check vehicle toe-in and tire pressure levels
to ensure proper alignment of the camera to the "world" before proceeding
with calibration. The vehicle to run the calibration routine is
to be at nominal production loading capacity.
|
(2) |
Windshield must be clean and silk-screen checked so that there
is no blockage of the camera.
|
(3) |
Service technician connects the diagnostic connector and starts
the vehicle. The camera module should not be activated by pressing
the switch.
|
(4) |
The service calibration routine may not run correctly if any
system level fault is active.
|
(5) |
If working with a replacement ECU: the service technician initiates
the SPTAC Reset configuration.
|
(6) |
Service technician either aligns the vehicle to the target or
the target to the vehicle.
a. |
Bottom of the target is 90 ± 1 cm (35.4 ± 0.4 in.) from
the ground and aligned with the camera lens horizontal axis.
• |
The target (A) is placed along the vehicle’s
longitudinal axis (centerline) within ±3
cm (±1.2 in.) of target center. (Horizontal
deviation (B) : ±3 cm (±1.2 in.))
|
|
|
b. |
The positon of target (A) in short distance is 0 ± 5
cm (0 ± 2 in.) (B) in front of front bumper.
|
c. |
The positon of target (A) in long distance is 100 ± 5
cm (39.4 ± 2 in.) (B) in front of front bumper.
• |
The tolerance angle of target in horizontal
direction is ± 10°.
|
• |
The tolerance angle of target in vertical
direction is ± 5°.
|
• |
The tolerance angle of target in facade
center is ±1°.

Test Drive
The LKA may not activate properly in the following conditions.
– |
In case lane is not visible due to glare or heavy rain.
|
– |
In case the road is covered with snow.
|
– |
In case puddle on the road surface reflects street light or head
light from oncoming vehicle.
|
– |
In case there is blocking object such as sidewalk on the side
of the road.
|
– |
In case there is trace of more than one lane due to road repair.
|
– |
In case the distance with vehicle in front is very short.
|
– |
Be sure to perform test drive to check for normal operation after
performing optical angle test.
|
– |
Drive on straight road (of longer than 500 m) with 2 white or
yellow lane marks at speed of over 64 km/h (40 mph), and check for
the alert as you intentionally steer close to the lane mark.
|
– |
LKA operates properly if the lane mark segment space is less
than 8 m.
|
– |
LKA activates at vehicle speed above 64 km/h (40 mph).
|
– |
Perform test drive on car-only road or on a highway.
|
|
The lane keeping assist (LKA) may not operate in the following conditions:
– |

wet road surface or debris.
|
– |
The brightness outside the vehicle suddenly changes, for example,
when entering a tunnel.
|
– |

while in a tunnel.
|
– |

lane.
|
– |

or debris.
|
– |
The visibility is poor due to bad weather such as fog, heavy
rain, or heavy snow.
|
– |

|
– |
The lane lines are faint or damaged.
|
– |
Condensation on the windshield is not completely removed.
|
– |
A shadow of median strip covers the road lanes.
|
– |
The lane lines are not distinguishable from the road due to dust
on the road.
|
– |
There are tracks or marks near the lane lines.
|
– |
A shadow of median strip, guardrail, sound-absorbing walls, or
trees covers the road lanes.
|
– |
There is a line structure such as pavements.
|
– |
The distance from the preceding vehicle is too short or the preceding
vehicle is on the lane lines.
|
– |
The vehicle is shaking intensely.
|
– |
Objects are on the crash pad.
|
– |
Backlight is lit in the direction of movement.
|
– |
The lane lines are too complex or are replaced by an alternate
structure due to construction.
|
– |
The visibility is too poor to see the lane lines.
|
– |
There are two or more lane lines.
|
– |
The lane lines inside a tunnel are contaminated by dust or oil.
|
– |
There are road markings such as crosswalk or road signs on the
road surface.
|
– |
The lane lines disappear or are not visible, for example, in
a cross-section.
|
– |
The number of road lanes increases/decreases or the road lanes
cross each other complicatedly.
|
– |
(Tollgate entrances/exits or divided/joined roads)
|
|
The lane keeping assist (LKA) prevents lane departures and helps the
driver with steering, but the driver must not rely on the LKA, make a decision
for safety on their own, and take necessary measures.
– |
This system warns the driver about unintended lane departures
and assists the driver in case of any lane departure.
|
– |
Drivers are responsible for controlling their vehicle in order
to drive safely.
|
– |
Do not turn the steering wheel too rapidly when the system sounds
the alarm.
|
– |
This system is not activated when the vehicle speed is 60 km/h
or less or the system fails to detect the lane lines.
|
– |
Do not tint or put stickers or accessories on the windshield
around the rear view mirror.
|
– |
Keep the installation part of LKA dry.
|
– |
Do not remove or give an impact on LKA parts.
|
– |
Do not place reflective materials such as white paper or a mirror
on the dashboard. They may cause malfunction due to reflected sunlight.
|
– |
Excessive noises may prevent the driver from hearing the LKA
alarm sound.
