MULTI AV SYSTEM : System Description
INFOID:0000000006216216
Multi AV system means that the following systems are integrated.
COMMUNICATION SIGNAL
 AV control unit function by transmitting/receiving dat a one by one with each unit (slave unit) that configures
them completely as a master unit by connecting between units that configure MULTI AV system with two AV
communication lines (H, L).
 Two AV communication lines (H, L) adopt a twisted pair line that is resistant to noise.
 AV control unit is connected by CAN communication, and it receives data signal from ECM and combination
meter It computes and displays fuel economy information value with the obtained information. Transmitting/
receiving of data signal is performed by BCM. Also, it transmits the required signal of vehicle setting and
receives the response signal.
 AV control unit is connected with front display unit and serial communication, and it transmits the required
signal of display and display control and receives the response signal from front display unit.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM FUNCTION
Description
 The AV control unit controls navigation function whil e GPS tuner has built-in map data, GYRO (angle speed
sensor), on the HDD (Hard Disk Drive).
 The AV control unit inputs operation signal with communication signal, through display (touch panel) and multifunction switch and steering switch.
 Guide sound is output to front speaker through BOSE am p. from AV control unit when operating navigation
system.
 A vehicle position is calculated with the GYRO (angl e speed sensor), vehicle sensor, signal from GPS satel-
lite and map data stored on HDD (Hard Disk Drive), and transmits the map image signal (RGB image, RGB
area, RGB image synchronizing) to the display.
Position Detection Principle
The navigation system periodically calculates the current vehicle
position according to the following three types of signals.
 Travel distance of the vehicle as determined by the vehicle speed
sensor
 Vehicle turning angle determined by the gyroscope (angular speed
sensor)
 The travel direction of the v ehicle determined by the GPS antenna
(GPS information)
The current position of the vehicle is then identified by comparing the
calculated vehicle position with map data, which is stored in the HDD
(Hard Disk Drive) (map-matching), and indicated on the screen with
a current location mark. More accurate data is used by comparing
position detection results from GPS to the map-matching.

SYSTEM
 Map-matching does not function correctly when road on which thevehicle is driving is new, etc. and not recorded in the map data.
Also, map-matching does not function correctly when road pattern
stored in the map data and the actual road pattern are different due
to repair, etc.
Therefore, the map-matching func tion judges other road as a cur-
rently driving road if the road is not in the map, and displays the
current location mark on it. Later, the current location mark may be
repositioned to the road if t he correct road is detected.
 Effective range for comparing the vehicle position and travel direc- tion calculated by the distance and direction with the road data is
limited. Therefore, correction by map-matching is not possible
when there is an excessive gap between current vehicle position and the position on the map.
GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS (Global Positioning System) is developed for and is controlled
by the US Department of Defens e. The system utilizes GPS satel-
lites (NAVSTAR), transmitting out radio waves while flying on an orbit
around the earth at an altitude of approximately 21,000 km (13,049
mile).
The receiver calculates the travel position in three dimensions (lati-
tude/longitude/altitude) according to the time lag of the radio waves
that four or more GPS satellites transmit (three-dimensional position-
ing). The GPS receiver calculates the travel position in two dimen-
sions (latitude/longitude) with the previous altitude data if the GPS
receiver receives only three radio waves (two-dimensional position-
ing). GPS position correction is not performed while stopping the
vehicle.
Accuracy of the GPS will deteriorate under the following conditions:
 In two-dimensional positioning, GPS accuracy will det eriorate when altitude of the vehicle position changes.
 The position of GPS satellite affects GPS detection pr ecision. The position detection may not be precisely
performed.
 The position detection is not performed if GPS receiver does not receive radio waves from GPS satellites.
(Inside a tunnel, parking in a building, under an elevat ed highway etc.) GPS receiver may not receive radio
waves from GPS satellites if any object is placed on the GPS antenna.
NOTE:
 The detection result has an error of approximately 10 m (32.81 ft) even with a high-precision three dimen- sional positioning.
 There may be cases when the accuracy is lowered and radio waves are stopped intentionally because the GPS satellite signal is controlled by the US trace control center.
AUDIO FUNCTION
The audio system is equipped with the following functions. Each function is operated with multifunction switch,
preset switch, touch panel, steering switch or audio rec ognition. Operation status of audio is indicated at dis-
play.
Operating Signal
Audio system operation can be performed with multifuncti on switch, preset switch, steering switch, touch
panel function or voice recognition function.
