Radar ECU

This project focused on the development, configuration, and integration of software for a radar electronic control unit (ECU) for Volvo.

The tasks included analyzing customer software requirements, creating a high-level MCU software architecture, developing safety objectives, and outlining a high-level cybersecurity concept. Additionally, the project involved creating startup code and linker scripts, as well as integrating the Infineon MCAL (Microcontroller Abstraction Layer).

An essential part of the project was to establish the foundation for configuring the AUTOSAR stack and ensure stable and reliable main loop operation. Furthermore, the project included the development of Complex Device Drivers (CDD) for System Basis Chips (SBCs) and Power Management ICs (PMICs).

The technologies used included AUTOSAR 4.2, Infineon Aurix TC3xx, and the Elektrobit toolchain. These advanced technologies and tools ensured that the software architecture supported all necessary safety and security features, providing a robust solution for the radar ECU.

One of the main tasks of the project was to analyze the customer’s software requirements to ensure that all specific needs and safety requirements of Volvo were considered. Based on this analysis, a high-level MCU software architecture was developed, serving as the foundation for further development.

The creation of safety objectives and a high-level cybersecurity concept was also crucial to ensure that the radar ECU was protected against potential threats. This involved implementing protective measures to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the data.

The development of startup code and linker scripts, as well as the integration of the Infineon MCAL, were crucial steps in establishing a stable and efficient foundation for the software. This allowed for efficient configuration of the AUTOSAR stack and ensured smooth operation of the main loop.

Another key aspect of the project was the development of Complex Device Drivers (CDD) for System Basis Chips (SBCs) and Power Management ICs (PMICs), ensuring that all hardware components of the radar ECU were optimally utilized and integrated.

Overall, the project ensured that the developed software architecture provided a robust and reliable solution for Volvo’s radar ECU. sensified was responsible for the successful execution of this project, ensuring that all project goals were achieved and meeting Volvo’s high standards through the use of state-of-the-art technologies and rigorous development and testing methods.
