The technical development of electric vehicles has been actively proceeding because of the reduction of oil resources and need for eco-friendly vehicle technology. In particular, an electronic control unit is an important element in the technology of electric vehicles due to the motor drive system. This paper concerns an experimental study on the thermal analysis of the steering control ECU structure for an electric vehicle. The ECU unit is designed for eight heat sinks for the thermal analysis of the ECU structure. The thermal analysis characteristics of the ECU structure are evaluated by the temperature distribution, heat flow, von Mises stress, total translation, and external surface temperature measurement of the ECU unit.

AUOTSAR(Automotive Open system Architecture)는 자동차 ECU(Electronic Control Unit) 에 내장되는 소프트웨어에 대한 표준 구조로서, ECU 소프트웨어의 품질 향상은 물론, 개발 및 관리 비용의 절감에 기여하는 등 많은 장점을 갖는다. AUTOSAR 의 이런 장점 때문에 많은 자동차 회사들이 ECU 소프트웨어에 AUTOSAR 적용을 추진하고 있다. 이에 따라 기존 레거시 ECU 소프트웨어 시스템을 AUTOSAR 표준에 맞는 ECU 소프트웨어 시스템으로 변환하는 방법에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. 그 이유는 이미 많은 ECU 레거시 소프트웨어 시스템들이 개발되어 사용되고 있으며, 이들에게는 이미 기능 및 안정성 검증을 위하여 많은 시간과 비용이 투자하여 되어 있다. 따라서 ECU 소프트웨어 시스템에 AUTOSAR 를 적용하는 경우 기존의 레거시 소프트웨어 시스템을 재사용할 수 있으면 생산성 및 품질 면에서 많은 장점을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 C 언어로 작성된 기존의 ECU 소프트웨어 시스템을 AUTOSAR 플랫폼에서 재사용할 수 있도록 하기 위하여, 기존의 레거시 ECU 소프트웨어 시스템을 AUTOSAR 플랫폼으로 마이그레이션하는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 마이그레이션 과정은 크게 두 단계로 나누어 지는데, 이는 레거시 소프트웨어 시스템을 분석하여 마이그레이션이 가능하도록 기능별로 분해하는 것과, 분해된 구성 요소들을 AUTOSAR 플랫폼에 맞는 구조로 재구성하는 과정이다. 본 논문에서는 이중 첫 번째 과정인 레거시 소프트웨어 시스템의 분석 및 기능별 분해 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper presents the design and development of ECU simulator in order to verify automatic firmware update system of ECU SW on the vehicle. We designed and developed general-proposed ECU simulator as devide into HW and SW parts. HWadopt 32bit MPU, CAN, LIN, LCD, and touch-pad button to satisfy general-proposed ECU level. And SW constructed as finite-state-machine structure in order to support HW spec. We developed ECU manager which deliveries update data to verify validity of operation. And we tested ECU simulator with ECU manager. For test of validity of ECU simulator, we set 4 scenarios between ECU simulator and manager. As the result, we confirmed validity of operation in ECU simulator for automatic SW update system.

The recent automobiles, a number of ECU inside the vehicle has been used. Also, each ECU is connected to different types of networks in accordance with the characteristics. Therefore, efficient data exchange between discrete network has emerged as a very important element. The gateway is responsible for the ability to exchange data between discrete network. In this study, we propose the new gateway algorithm to provide the structure of the mapping table to improve the efficiency of data exchange between discrete network. Also it provides a structure of a new gateway algorithm with a function of adjusting the priority of the data to be transmitted to another network arbitrarily. Moreover, the proposed gateway structure may simultaneously convert the transmission data input from a particular network to multiple networks. Another advantage is easy to change the entire data structure only if we change the table structure in the gateway.

Modern vehicles are equipped with a number of ECUs(Electronic Control Units), and ECUs can control vehicles efficiently by communicating each other through CAN(Controller Area Network). However, CAN bus is known to be vulnerable to cyber attacks because of the lack of message authentication and message encryption, and access control. To find these security issues related to vehicle hacking, CAN Fuzzing methods, that analyze the vulnerabilities of ECUs, have been studied. In the existing CAN Fuzzing methods, fuzzing inputs are randomly generated without considering the structure of CAN messages transmitted by ECUs, which results in the non-negligible fuzzing time. In addition, the existing fuzzing solutions have limitations in how to monitor fuzzing results. To deal with the limitations of CAN Fuzzing, in this paper, we propose a Non-Random CAN Fuzzing, which consider the structure of CAN messages and systematically generates fuzzing input values that can cause malfunctions to ECUs. The proposed Non-Random CAN Fuzzing takes less time than the existing CAN Fuzzing solutions, so it can quickly find CAN messages related to malfunctions of ECUs that could be originated from SW implementation errors or CAN DBC(Database CAN) design errors. We evaluated the performance of Non-Random CAN Fuzzing by conducting an experiment in a real vehicle, and proved that the proposed method can find CAN messages related to malfunctions faster than the existing fuzzing solutions.

In order to diagnose a vehicle, it is achieved by collecting diagnostic data within the ECU or between ECUs and managing the diagnostic data by utilizing various communication methods through an electronic device composed of an ECU(Electronic Control Unit), which is an automotive electronic device. As communication methods, LIN, CAN, FlexRay are mainly used. Recently, wired/wireless communication is being used based on Ethernet. In order to perform vehicle diagnosis, it is necessary to know the diagnosis code generated by the ECU and to collect diagnosis data using diagnosis communication. In addition, diagnostic data can be managed from the ECU only when the application software required for vehicle diagnosis is configured. If many automobile manufacturers are manufacturing ECUs based on the AUTOSAR standard, which is an automotive electronic standard, the software structure is also configured to be applied according to the standard. In this paper, we understand the vehicle diagnosis communication method of the AUTUSAR standard, study the configuration and processing method of diagnosis data, and study the contents of software components, diagnosis communication, and diagnosis event processing.

In this paper, the spiral antenna with the center frequencies of 315MHz, 433MHz, and 447MHz for RKE system of a vehicle is designed on PCB. The antenna is microstrip line-fed, and applied PIFA concept near the feeding part to easily tune center frequency and input impedance. The PIFA-type spiral antenna with the size of $30mm{\times}20mm$ is designed on printed PCB by considering the effect of circuits and components on PCB, ECU case and vehicle body. Also chip inductor inserted dual-band spiral antenna of 315MHz and 447MHz is designed. We found that the antenna designed on PCB satisfied the antenna specifications through measurement and field test.

SENT (single edge nibble transmission) is a serial communication protocol between automotive sensors and ECU (electronic control unit). SENT exploits digital waveform, so it has a simple and cheap architecture without transceiver circuits. Usually it is exploited as an embedded communication interface in the sensors. In this paper, a SENT interface was designed in Verilog HDL, fully complying with SAE J2716. It was implemented in FPGA, and verified on a test board. When it was synthesized, the gate count is about 2,500 gates in 0.18um technology.
