Key Cockpit Trends

• Digitization of cluster driven by EV and Safety

• CarPlay and Android Auto win infotainment battle

• From collection of ECUs to centralized cockpit domain controller

• Multi-display digital cockpit with ADAS HMI

• Adaptive cockpit fusions cabin monitoring and ADAS environment

Key Safety Trends

• Increased focus on improved Level-2 ADAS with partial automation

• Requires sensor fusion and increased computing power

• Level-2 hands-off is allowed only in U.S. and Japan

• New specification being developed by WP29 of UN

• UN regulation regarding hands-off driving expected in 2022 to increase ADAS/AD controller demand

• Secured centralized computation platform for multi-displays and multi-applications

• Higher price efficiency for cockpit functionality with scalability from entry to high

• Middleware and tools for rapid integration

• Compute: Failsafe and secure modular design from 2 TFLOPS to 20 TFLOPS

• Runtime: Safe communication and easy integration in vehicle

• Studio: OPEN for eco-system development


EE architecture is changing the landscape6

Motivation for a new E/E Architecture

Radar Lidar Camera Compute Logging


Automotive Ethernet TSN transforms future EE Architectures

Why New E/E Architecture?

7

New Technology for Automotive• Ethernet Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)• Service-oriented Architecture (SOA): Applications

linked to virtual domains/zones• Parallel computing carriers for safety at fail-safe-,

fail tolerant-, fail-operational operations• Micro-services• Permanent system / SW / data upgradeability

Industry Challenges• Number of ECUs has increased tremendously

(100+)• Need for further sensor/actors/computing • HW/SW separation: Eco-system development

partner integration• Vehicle harness weight and production costs (up to

5km length, > 50kg, 1000+ production hours)• Fail-safe & Fail-tolerant operation / Security• Seemless cloud/edge connectiivity & upgradeablility


Vehicle Zonal E/E Architecture

Ethernet TSN backbone with high bandwidth and true real-time

communication facilities.

All Sensors and Actuators handled by scalable Zone Gateway

ECU´s.

Zonal architecture blends the upcoming vehicle functions and

technologies with advantages in weight and cost.

Further consolidation of the processing units into one

“super” computing device including redundancy

Processing blades provide scalable computational

power

Optimized EE architecture: 8 zonal ECUs + 3 SuperCores

Optimization• 2D routing optimization with 2 – 14

zones ECUs

Assumptions• Single core wiring

• Control bus / connections only

• Wiring for power distribution with same path as control bus

Function and Vehicle Area• Area distribution:

Functions/sensors/sensors in vehicle

• Zonal ECUs on the rim are distributed according to minimize the path to functions

• Super Core ECUs (3) are set in the middle of the vehicle:

The 2D routing of wires• Based on proximity (shortest path

paradigm, black)

• Plausible rendering of the harness by constraint routing (grey areas)

• Backbone Ethernet TSN hand-routed rings

139 ECUs/ 11 ZonesPremium L2+ vehicle: 139 ECUs


Case study – Summary Advantages

1. Saving in wiring harness vs expenses on zonal ECUs can be solved with 6 to 11 zones (Entry till High)

2. Zonal architectures bear savings of 50%and more in length of the wiring harness for both• Control / data wiring • Power distribution wiring• Automated production of wiring

3. Standardized zonal ECUs are potentially deployable across • variants and trim levels• can distribute power and provide protection as

well
