Abstract

A new electric/electronic (E/E) vehicle architecture is proposed introducing a flexible sensor node (SN) concept. A SN collects signals from distributed sensors, calculates physical quantities out of the raw sensor data and provides the information to all vehicle functions connected to the node. Fusion of signals in the SN renders the E/E-architecture more structured and transparent; redundant assembly of sensors is avoided and more accurate, reliable and broadly available physical sensor information can be provided.
