Optimization of Power and Signal Distribution Systems for Advanced Safety Features

Inhalt:
The goal of the funded project “AFFiAncE” is to provide a universal infrastructure to develop, evaluate and select next generation vehicle system architectures for advanced safety features. The focus is on the communication and the on-board energy network. In a test bench currently under construction, it will be possible to play back and manipulate different sensor sets with a replay system and to configure and test the communication infrastructure. In order to evaluate the behaviour of the on-board energy network for critical safety functions, various faults in the on-board energy network will be simulated and evaluated. The simulation results are used to test the real hardware in a realistic scenario based on the current and voltage profiles from the simulation. This test environment makes it possible to evaluate the fail-operational behaviour of the on-board power system.
