Generic Simulation and Validation Approach for Various Kind of ADAS Systems

Abstract

To efficiently develop and validate such systems a generic and integrated solution providing Sensor Simulation, Virtual and Rapid Prototyping and Real Time Bypassing is needed. This paper proposes such a solution, with a comfortable editor with various predefined objects e.g. for ACC, LDW, Break-Assist, autonomous parking/driving to support easy configuration for the different validation views; access to automotive buses like CAN, CAN-FD, FlexRay, Ethernet; high speed internal access to the ECU data e.g. through Microcontrollers Data Trace Interfaces; Video Streams acquisition through various camera interfaces including Ethernet/BroadR-Reach; GPS Position data. The solution also includes a real-time bypassing and rapid prototyping execution platform. The solution works independent from the ECU supplier implementation and can be also used to compare various ECU vendors.
