Functional Safety of a Lane Assistance System

My job is to create functional safety documents based on what you learned in the lessons. These documents are simplified versions of what a functional safety manager would create as part of a safety case. A safety case is a collection of documents proving that a project has made a vehicle safer.

Documents

  • 01_SafetyPlan_LaneAssistance :

    A safety plan provides an overall framework for a functional safety project. it contains :Purpose of the Safety Plan , Goals and Measures, Development Interface Agreement, and more...

  • 02_HazardAnalysisAndRiskAssessment

    There are five steps to the hazard analysis and risk assessment :

    • Conduct a situational analysis
    • Identify malfunctions
    • Combine situations and malfunctions and assess risk
    • Determine ASILs
    • Derive safety goals
  • 03_FunctionalSafetyConcept_LaneAssistance

    Helps define more depth of these info :

    • functional safety requirements and their attributes (ASIL, Fault Tolerant Time Interval, Safe State, Verification and Validation Acceptance Criteria)
    • system diagram with an updated architecture (we will provide this for you)
    • warning and degradation concept, which explains the warnings that the driver will receive as well as how the system will be shut down when a malfunction occurs.
  • 04_TechnicalSafetyConcept_LaneAssistance

    We will go more in depth than Functional Safety Concept document, with more focus on software and hardware development, we are now diving deep into the V model

  • 05_SoftwareRequirementsAndArchitecture_LaneAssistance

    software requirements are much more specific than technical requirements. Software requirements specify variable names, signal paths, and software protocols and mechanisms. A software engineer should be able to write a program from the software requirements and software architecture. You will need to fill out all five of these documents in order to meet specifications.
