SECURE OVER-THE-AIR UPDATES FOR CONNECTED VEHICLES
Auto Tech Review|June 2020
With the advent of the connected vehicle – the “Internet of Vehicles” – the automotive industry is experiencing a real technological leap. As the central component, software is redefining the way manufacturers develop and manufacture their products. It has to be kept up-to-date through downloads, which is a key task. Akamai Technologies describes the challenges arising from software updates and how intelligent analysis methods can be used to investigate anomalies and detect attacks at an early stage.

SECURE OVER-THE-AIR UPDATES FOR CONNECTED VEHICLES

CHALLENGE OVER-THE-AIR UPDATES

For software updates to function smoothly, the automotive industry must ensure that it can be distributed efficiently and securely Over-the-Air (OTA) to millions of vehicles around the world. OTA means that data is transferred to the vehicle via a cellular connection. Up until now, software updates and troubleshooting have been carried out via a recall action in the workshops.

Today’s vehicles have a radio interface (for example Wi-Fi and mobile phone network) which allows such software updates to be installed. This is called Firmware Over-the-Air (FOTA) or Software Over-the-Air (SOTA). Everybody knows about software updates for smartphones. FOTA or SOTA updates for vehicles are carried out according to the same principle: The vehicle is informed that new software updates are available. The software is then downloaded directly into the vehicle via the update server. Subsequently, the data is securely transferred in the background, while the vehicle is in motion. The actual update process takes place when the vehicle is not in motion, for example, in a parking position.

Sound Generation For Enhanced Road Safety

With an ever-increasing number of fully electric and hybrid vehicles entering the market, we are witnessing a change in the acoustic experience in and around the car. The silent nature of the electric powertrain means that other road users miss the familiar acoustic cues that warn them of an approaching vehicle. To remedy this situation, Harman is working on various noise management solutions.

OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE SAFETY CONTRIBUTION OF TODAY'S AUTOMOTIVE HEADLAMPS

Good lighting makes a major contribution to road safety. In 2011, the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) presented an evaluation system for headlamps that can objectively assess the quality of illumination and glare limitation. New light sources like LEDs and lighting functions (glare-free high beam, partial high beam) have been available for several years, so that an extension of the proven CIE method is necessary, which takes into account, among other things, changed switch-on and service lives of new lighting functions and represents a generally understandable evaluation system. An evaluation system presented in the following by the Technische Uni versitÀt Darmstadt, which was developed by an encompassing expert commission, is intended to provide representative data and enable an objective evaluation of headlamp performance.

FUNCTIONAL SAFETY STANDARDS TOP PRIORITY FOR FUTURE AUTOMOTIVE DEPLOYMENT

Increasing levels of electronic content in vehicles result in a large amount of software that is required to run the scenes behind the mechanical aspects of a vehicle. Electronic systems in automobiles are part of every section, from the powertrain to comfort and convenience systems as well as all types of safety equipment. This makes electronics and the software running these systems a critical part of the equation for future mobility solutions. In addition, putting standards in place to measure methods of developing, testing and functioning of such electronic systems also becomes highly relevant.
