Project Overview: Building a Foundation for Scalability

Objective:
Validate core AUTOSAR 4 functionalities essential for series production, including:

  • Error memory (DTC) management
  • Diagnostic communication (UDS/OBD)
  • ECU configuration and calibration

Technical Stack:

  • AUTOSAR Version: 4.x
  • Runtime Environment: ArcticCore AUTOSAR Stack
  • Hardware: PowerPC (PPC)-based embedded platform
  • Toolchain: ArcCore’s integrated development environment

Key Focus Areas

  1. Error Memory Systems

    • Implementation of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) storage/retrieval
    • Integration with onboard diagnostics (OBD-II) standards
  2. Diagnostic Communication

    • Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS) protocol compliance
    • CAN/LIN network simulation for fault injection testing
  3. Production Readiness

    • Performance benchmarking under automotive temperature ranges
    • Memory optimization for resource-constrained ECUs

Why AUTOSAR 4 and ArcticCore?

  • Standardized Architecture: AUTOSAR 4 ensures interoperability across OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
  • ArcticCore Advantages:
    • Lightweight, modular stack ideal for PPC architectures
    • Pre-configured BSW modules for rapid prototyping
    • Compliance with ISO 26262 functional safety requirements

Client Benefits

  • Risk Mitigation: Validate AUTOSAR functions before series development
  • Cost Efficiency: Reusable prototype architecture reduces future R&D effort
  • Scalability: Modular design supports future expansion (e.g., cybersecurity modules, OTA updates)
