    摘要: A vehicle control system includes a central ECU configured to calculate target outputs of actuators, and relay devices each disposed in a communication path between the central ECU and a corresponding actuator among the actuators. The plurality of relay devices includes a specific relay device configured transfer a control signal from the central ECU only to a fixed actuator that is an actuator not related to driving control, braking control, and steering control of a vehicle. The specific relay device is configured to output, to the fixed actuator coupled to the specific relay device, one of a signal for setting the fixed actuator in an operating state or a signal for setting the fixed actuator in a non-operating state, in response to detection of an abnormality in the central ECU. The specific relay device does not have a function of diagnosing an abnormality in the specific relay device.

    摘要: An in-vehicle device includes a first controller and a second controller. The first controller includes at least one physical core for executing a first unit related to control of hardware and a second unit related to provision of a service. The second controller starts the first controller in response to occurrence of a start trigger. The first controller starts the first unit, and then starts the second unit when the first controller is started by the second controller. The first unit and the second unit are restarted when an abnormality of the first unit is detected by the second controller or an abnormality of the second unit is detected by the first unit. The first unit, the second unit and the second controller are restarted when an abnormality of the second controller is detected by the second controller.

    摘要: A testing device for testing at least one vehicle control unit includes an error feedforward device for feeding forward predefined electrical signals to the at least one vehicle control unit. The error feedforward device has, for electrical signal connection to the at least one vehicle control unit at least one power interface configured for conducting power signals, at least one control signal interface configured for conducting control signals, and at least one data bus interface configured for conducting bus signals. At least the bus lines belonging to the at least one data bus interface are guided separately in the testing device from the electrical lines belonging to the other types of interface.

    摘要: An in-vehicle use control system includes: a state management part which acquires the information on an operational state of the system; a memory storage part which memorizes the information on the operational state of the system, which is acquired by the state management part; a control part which has a plurality of control functions; a list management part which holds lists in which the correspondence relation between the control function of the control part and the normal operating state of the control function is defined; and a monitoring part which chooses the list held in the list management part, based on the operational state which is memorized in the memory storage part, compares the normal operating state of a control function which is defined in the list, and an execution state of the control part, and monitors whether the operation of the control function is normal or not.

    摘要: A vehicular sensing system includes a plurality of sensors disposed at a vehicle equipped with the vehicular sensing system and a plurality of zonal aggregators each receiving respective sensor data captured by at least two respective sensors of the plurality of sensors and each aggregating its received sensor data into respective aggregated sensor data. The system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) that receives the respective aggregated sensor data from each respective zonal aggregator. The system includes a plurality of daughter cards, each removably connected to a respective zonal aggregator. Each respective daughter card includes a respective controller that controls a respective component of the equipped vehicle and the respective component controlled by the respective controller is based on a location of the respective zonal aggregator and respective daughter card within the equipped vehicle.

    摘要: An electrical power distribution system includes a first power bus operating in a first voltage range and a second power bus operating in the first voltage range. A first eFuse circuit selectively couples a power source to the first power bus. A second eFuse circuit selectively couples the power source to the second power bus. A first accumulator is coupled to a first node between the first eFuse circuit and the first power bus. A second accumulator is electrically coupled to a second node between the second eFuse circuit and the second power bus. The first eFuse circuit opens in response to a first electrical fault at the first power bus, and the second power bus is powered with the power source or the first accumulator. The second eFuse circuit opens in response to a second electrical fault at the second power bus, and the first power bus is powered with the power source or the first accumulator.

    摘要: A method includes receiving a handwheel angle signal, generating a handwheel speed signal and a handwheel acceleration signal, and synchronizing the handwheel speed signal and the handwheel acceleration signal. The method also includes delaying the handwheel angle signal, calculating a sum of the delayed handwheel angle signal and a phase value, converting the sum of the delayed handwheel angle signal and the phase value to radians, determining an offset correction value by calculating a sine function value of the converted sum of the operator torque estimation signal and the phase value, calculating a product of the offset correction value and a calibratable value of an offset mass magnitude, adjusting the operator torque estimation signal by adding the product and the calibratable value of an offset mass magnitude, and determining whether hands of an operator of the vehicle are on the handwheel based on the adjusted operator torque estimation signal.
