Spirent | Addressing Safety, Security Aspects Of V2X Technologies

The company’s solutions are based on four main methodologies – testing for conformance, performance, security & robustness and noise protection. Auto Tech Review recently spoke to Ravi Patil, Business Development Manager – Automotive, Spirent Communications (L) as well as Matthias Montag, Business Development Manager, Spirent Communications (R) and learnt that local customers are maturing with regards to seeking deployment scenarios with respect to automotive Ethernet within the car.

V2X & RELATED SECURITY

Spirent is developing solutions for V2X technologies with a few partners and is focusing on the adoption of such innovations in the local market, said Patil. He added that the V2X journey has become a reality over the years and the company is assisting global companies that are involved in shaping the vision of driverless cars. Connected cars have been attracting a lot of attention globally; it is evolving and will further gain importance in the future, said Montag.

Spirent has two products to help design and test vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and V2X communication services. The first is a conformance test suite for both the US and Europe. The second is a performance emulator solution that helps measure the application performance and security aspects of the V2X technology for multiple vehicle scenarios, and test high crash probability scenarios.

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 versität 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.
