Development of a test procedure to assess the impact of various operating conditions on the operation of the optical composite system ADAS

Abstract

The article discusses the reasons for the loss of the target for optical visibility by the advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) system when operating under different conditions. As a consequence, the ADAS system as a whole is observed to malfunction, which can lead to accidents. Such a problem is typical for operating conditions in all conditions. The purpose of this work is to describe the methodology developed by the authors of comparative testing of cars on public roads. The task of this methodology is to compare the behavior of cars under different operating conditions, affecting the loss of purpose, when the adaptive cruise control and lane keeping on public roads. As a part of the task, the algorithm for the test preparation has been developed. The equipment required for the tests is described. The number of vehicles involved is justified, as well as their mutual location on the roadway during the tests. The responsibilities of each test team member are specified and described in detail. A methodology for measuring the time from the time of loss to the time of recapture of the target has been developed. The choice of the test length by run and driving direction is justified in order to obtain a sufficient number of measurements for subsequent analysis. The results of the tests are given.
