Addressing advanced challenges in HPC development for ADAS .

Since vehicles become more intelligent and connected, the complexity of integrating ADAS features into HPC increases exponentially. Endego recently collaborated with a Tier 1 automotive customer to overcome significant challenges in HPC development, ensuring high performance and reliability in their system.

Industry
  • automotive

The main objectives of the project revolved around SomeIp signal processing and integration of Ethernet communication stack with AUTOSAR system partition including implementing supervision and diagnostic functionalities and optimizing communication performance. These requirements demanded innovative solutions tailored to the Aurix TriCore and EyeQ processors at the heart of the customer’s architecture. 

The Endego solution 

To address the customer’s challenges, we applied a methodical approach grounded in technical expertise and advanced tools: 

  1. Ethernet stack configuration: we configured the Ethernet stack based on Basic Software (BSW) implementation. Leveraging design and development tools provided by Vector. 
  2. Development of an ASIL-B software component (SWC): A new ASIL-B SWC was implemented to manage non-diagnostic communication, specifically for SomeIp signals supervision. This software component was designed to enhance the reliability of signal processing in the system. 
  3. Creation of a Complex Device Driver (CDD): Endego delivered a new CDD tailored to provide diagnostic features for the Ethernet transceiver and stack. This solution ensures seamless functionality and simplifies troubleshooting during system operation. 
  4. Securing HPC: Communication security was achieved by configuring the HSM. This guarantees data integrity and protection against cyber threats, a critical aspect for modern connected vehicles. 
  5. Optimization of Ethernet communication: Traffic shapers were configured and verified to optimize Ethernet communication performance. This ensures efficient bandwidth utilization and minimizes latency, enhancing the overall system responsiveness. 

Key technologies and tools 

Endego’s solution was made possible through a combination of advanced technologies and tools, including: 

  • Programming Languages: C, CAPL, MiL 
  • Technologies:: Vector tools, HSM, Infineon Tasking Toolset, AUTOSAR, MATLAB/Simulink 
  • Hardware: Aurix TriCore TC377X processors 

Impact and value delivered 

Through our comprehensive approach, we successfully addressed the Tier 1 customer’s requirements, delivering an efficient and secure solution for HPC and the corresponding ADAS partition. The implementation of diagnostic features, secure communication protocols, and optimized Ethernet performance highlights Endego’s capability to tackle the complexities of modern automotive systems.
