The Phaeton
Automatic Proximity Control (APC)
Design and Function
If a driver attempts to activate the vehicle's cruise control system (CCS) in the heavy traffic scenario
shown below to cruise along in a relaxed manner, he will soon have to brake because of the frequently
changing distances to vehicles ahead.
The APC system has learned its lesson from bats. In much the same way as bats use ultrasonic waves to
find their way about their surroundings, the Automatic Distance Control (APC) scans the traffic situation
ahead of the vehicle by means of millimetre wave radar and controls the distance to the vehicle ahead
on the basis of this data.
The CCS can be expanded to include a proximity-maintaining function which allows comfortable and
stress-free driving even in heavy traffic.

Introduction
Overview
APC
The Automatic Proximity Control system is an
expansion of the conventional cruise control
system (CCS). The CCS adjusts the speed of the
vehicle to a value preset by the driver.

The APC system implements this convenience
function in the same way. In addition, the
vehicle's road speed is adapted to the speed of
any vehicle driving ahead if the latter is moving
more slowly than one's own vehicle.

Automatic Proximity Control is a
driver assistance
system
designed for enhanced convenience.
It relieves the strain on the driver while driving
and thus contributes to active safety.
