This book reflects the shift in design paradigm in automobile industry. It presents future innovations, often referred as automotive systems engineering. These cause fundamental innovations in the field of driver assistance systems and electro-mobility as well as fundamental changes in the architecture of the vehicles. New driving functionalities can only be realized if the software programs of multiple electronic control units work together correctly. This volume presents the new and innovative methods which are mandatory to master the complexity of the vehicle of the future.

This book reflects the shift in design paradigm in automobile industry, describing innovations in the field of driver assistance systems and electro-mobility as well as fundamental changes in the architecture of vehicles and electronic control units.

This fundamental work explains in detail systems for active safety and driver assistance, considering both their structure and their function. These include the well-known standard systems such as Anti-lock braking system (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC) or Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). But it includes also new systems for protecting collisions protection, for changing the lane, or for convenient parking.
The book aims at giving a complete picture focusing on the entire system. First, it describes the components which are necessary for assistance systems, such as sensors,...

This book is the second volume reflecting the shift in the design paradigm in automobile industry. 2014, respectively.It describes major innovations in the field of driver assistance systems and automated vehicles as well as fundamental changes in the architecture of the vehicles.

In diesem Grundlagenwerk werden Systeme, die Fahrzeugführung unterstützen oder ganz übernehmen in Aufbau und Funktion ausführlich erklärt. Darüber hinaus enthält es eine Übersicht der Rahmenbedingungen für die Entwicklung solcher Systeme sowie Erläuterungen der angewandten Entwicklungs- und Testwerkzeuge. Die Beschreibung umfasst die heute bekannten Assistenzsysteme einschließlich des Ausblicks auf deren zukünftigen Entwicklungen. Speziell wird den vielfältigen Aspekten der Automatisierung des Fahrens Rechnung getragen, denn mit der Übertragung der Fahraufgabe an eine Maschine...
