With the rapid evolution of automotive smart and electrification technologies, the number of controllers and electronic components inside vehicles has surged. This increase poses greater risks of functional failures for automotive systems. Simultaneously, as smart driving technologies advance, controllers must handle a wide array of driving scenarios, elevating the demand for their functional safety to unprecedented levels. To ensure and improve the functional safety of automotive control systems, fault injection techniques have become crucial.
To verify the functional safety of control systems, VCARSYSTEM has launched on-road and bench fault injection solutions. These establish a validation infrastructure for controller error recovery mechanisms, supporting diverse fault injection tests and predefined response strategies. The solution utilizes automated testing systems to significantly reduce testing costs, enhance test coverage, and provide robust assurance for the functional safety of control systems.
During the vehicle integration validation stage, test and accept the functional safety of controllers to evaluate system fault tolerance and reliability.
Align with actual testing environments to further assess the tested system's real-world functional safety performance on the vehicle.
Construct faults in a non-dangerous testing environment to mitigate testing risks.
