Design Space Exploration and Validation of Electrical and Electronic System Architectures for Off-Road Vehicles and GSR Requirements

The design of the electrical and electronic architecture for special off-road vehicles (ORVs) is a complex task which requires the evaluation of different topologies and network technologies. The 2024 certification requirements defined by the European General Safety Regulation (GSR) make the task even more challenging due to the need of integrating multiple data-rate sensors in the existing vehicle architectures. In this paper, we propose a combined optimization and simulation infrastructure to explore efficiently the design space and evaluate the performance trade-offs of the best architectures.
