Comparison of Modelling Tools for the Assessment of the Parameters of Driving Assistance Solutions
Abstract
The main idea of the present work is to define the domain in which it is possible to adopt very simple models of vehicle dynamics for applications in the testing of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in lieu of complex models. The aim is to reduce the computational burden, and consequently the computing time. In particular, in the paper, the performances of a very simple model of vehicle dynamics, the Single Track with linear tires, have been compared with those of a complex and complete model, with non-linear tires, included in a commercial software (IPG CarMaker). For sake of shortness, the comparison has been carried out focusing on the lateral dynamical behaviour, and consequently the testing of a Lane Keeping Assistant (LKA) system has been carried out. Of course both the vehicle dynamic models, and the ADAS system have been integrated in a common simulation environment (Simulink), and tested in the standard traffic scenarios defined in EuroNCAP test protocols.
