2.2. AEB System.AEBisanactivesafetysystemthatmeasures
the degree of risk between a user vehicle and a forward vehicle
using vehicle-installed environment recognition sensors such
as radars or cameras. It helps in preventing accidents through
automatic brake control in risky situations. In Europe, the
enforcement of rules concerning AEB systems from 2014 has
been initiated. In Europe, the rules concerning AEB systems
have come into effect since the beginning of 2014. In 2009, it
was proposed that an informal group, called the autonomous
emergency braking system (AEBS)/lane departure warning
system (LDWS) informal group, will be formed under the
Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF), a sub-
sidiary body of a World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle
(WP.29), in order to formulate AEBS/LDWS standards. Eco-
nomic Commission for Europe (ECE) regulations concerning
AEBSarebeingenactedundertheUnitedNationsEconomic
Commission for Europe (UNECE) [ 12 ].

The AEB system described in this paper meets the
required performance specifications defined by the AEB
Group. The time of application of automatic braking force
by the AEB system was determined based on a collision risk
index, that is, time-to-collision (TTC) of the user vehicle and
