D1.4 - Report on requirements and targets of reliability and safety at system level
Deliverable Number: D1.4
Title: Report on requirements and targets of reliability and safety at system level
Lead Beneficiary: Infineon Austria
Within this complex chain of sensing-processing-controlling-actuating many types of ECS failures might occur and must be avoided by design or at least predicted in time during vehicle operation. These failures which occur with certain probabilities, reasons, and external influences include:
ArchitectECA2030 envisions to cover both safety assurance by design and safety assurance in-operation. |
propagating through the entire ECA vehicle stack consisting of onboard HW, onboard SW, off-board SW and data, development and validation methodologies, to support hazard identification, risk analysis, and sufficient risk mitigation. |
comprised of harmonized methods, tools, and processes able to handle dynamic requirements (e.g. new scenarios, untested events, online traffic data etc. provided by the in-vehicle monitoring device, to ultimately design safe, secure, and reliable ECA vehicle with a well-defined, quantified, and acceptable residual risk across all ECS levels (from semiconductor to cyber-physical system level / HW and embedded SW). The residual risk relies on the failure risks of each single semiconductor, electronic component, subsystem, and system used to build ECA vehicles |
for an in-vehicle monitoring device, which is able to indicate and measure the health status and possible degradations of the functional electronics and electronic systems enabling predictive diagnosis, maintenance, and re-configuration of embedded SW. |
standardization and certification bodies (Europe, US, Asia), governments, test field operators, and academia in tight interaction with the lighthouse initiative Mobility.E and its LIASE group to influence emerging standards, validation and homologation procedures for ECA vehicles and contributing to the emerging UL 4600 which is based on ISO 26262 and ISO/PAS 21448 (SOTIF). |
The trade-off between safety and security cause the need to restructure the vehicle architecture significantly from SAE Level 3 on. ArchitectECA2030 addresses today’s challenge of closing the gap between continuous integration of methods, tools, and processes for automated driving functions and the need for the continuous approval of these safety-critical functions (ASIL). |

The Objectives of Architect ECA 2030 are represented in a chain and aim to strengthen Europe’s position in the fields of safe and reliable electronic components and embedded intelligence.
Objectives 1 to 3 represent the group of technical objectives for addressing the ECA vehicles challenges:
Objectives 4 and 5 highlight the contributions to economic and societal challenges
ArchitectECA2030 aims at developing a semiconductor-centric ecosystem of innovation in terms of reliable, robust, and fail-aware ECS for ECA vehicles beyond the state-of-the-art and viable technologies to increase the attractiveness of ECA vehicles by translating customer requirements and concerns into a value proposition. The methods, tools, technologies and applications are developed along the entire value chain in tandem.
The stringent implementation is driven by the spirit of a cross-skilled consortium of European partner across the ECS value chain. |
ArchitectECA2030 has been accepted for funding within (ECSEL JU) in collaboration with the European Union’s H2020 Framework Programs under grant agreement No 877539.
The project will receive an ECSEL JU funding up to 4 M€ completed with national budgets from national funding authorities in Germany, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Austria and Norway.
