Evaluation of a Model-Based Development Process for Automotive Embedded Systems - Model-Based Development of an Adaptive Cruise Control System

  • Nowadays, vehicle control systems such as anti-lock braking systems, electronic stability control, and cruise control systems yield many advantages. The electronic control units that are deployed in this specific application domain are embedded systems that are integrated in larger systems to achieve predefined applications. Embedded systems consist of embedded hardware and a large software part. Model-based development for embedded systems offers significant software-development benefits that are pointed out in this thesis. The vehicle control system Adaptive Cruise Control is developed in this thesis using a model-based software development process for embedded systems. As a modern industrial design tool that is prevalent in this domain, simulink,is used for modeling the environment, the system behavior, for determining controller parameters, and for simulation purposes. Using an appropriate toolchain, the embedded code is automatically generated. The adaptive cruise control system could be successfully implemented and tested within this short timespan using a waterfall model without increments. The vehicle plant and important filters are fully deduced in detail. Therefore, the design of further vehicle control systems needs less effort for development and precise simulation.
