It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not limiting, as to those skilled in the art.

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the specific details need not be employed to practice the present application. In other instances, well-known steps or operations have not been described in detail in order to avoid obscuring the present application.

Referring to fig. 1, the present application provides a zone controller supporting advanced auxiliary driving systems.

The regional controller supporting the advanced auxiliary driving system (advanced driver assistance system, ADAS) may include a plurality of sensor IO data acquisition channels, a sensor control unit, a control unit of other vehicle electronic control units, a driving component, a processing chip and a control chip, where the processing chip may be configured to acquire source data acquired by the sensor through the sensor IO data acquisition channels and perform preprocessing on the source data acquired by the corresponding sensor to obtain preprocessed data, and the control chip may be configured to control, based on the preprocessed data, the corresponding target driving component, the sensor control unit and the control unit of other nearest electronic control units of the vehicle in the advanced auxiliary driving system.

The plurality of sensors may be various sensors mounted on the vehicle, such as a sensor of a door position, a sensor of a head position, a sensor of a tail position, and the like; the driving member may be a member in a vehicle, such as a window, a door, a wiper blade, a motor, or the like. Each sensor can be provided with an IO data acquisition channel respectively corresponding to each sensor, and each sensor is also provided with a corresponding sensor control unit respectively.

In addition, the control unit of the sensor control unit and the control unit of other whole vehicle electric control units can be any unit capable of realizing control, and the type, the specification and the like of the sensor control unit are not limited.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the ADAS can acquire the target driving component, surrounding environment data and the like through a plurality of sensors, and perform system calculation by combining map data, so that safety judgment is performed as much as possible, and the safety of vehicle running is improved.

In addition, the zone controller may generally act as a node in the vehicle that divides the electrical and electronic architecture, acting as a hub in the physical portion of the vehicle to meet the power distribution and data connection requirements of various sensors, peripherals, and actuators, etc.

It can be understood that, because the data collected by the sensor is more, if all the collected data is directly sent to the central processing unit, the central processing unit receives a large amount of data in a short time, and because of the limitation of the calculation force of the vehicle, the data cannot be processed in time, even because the data is too large, downtime and the like are caused, normal data processing cannot be performed, and the normal work of the vehicle is affected.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the processing chip in the area controller supporting the ADAS can firstly acquire the source data acquired by the sensor through the sensor IO data acquisition channel, preprocesses the data acquired by the corresponding sensor, then sends the preprocessed data to the control chip, and the control chip can control the corresponding target driving component, the sensor control unit and the control units of other nearest electric control units of the whole vehicle based on the processed data, namely, a large amount of data are not required to be directly sent to the central processor in the process, so that the data amount to be processed in the central processor is reduced, the edge calculation is realized through the processing chip, the data processing efficiency is improved, the normal work of the vehicle is ensured as much as possible, meanwhile, the control operation of the control chip on the ADAS auxiliary driving component can enable the implementation of the ADAS function to be more convenient, the whole vehicle can be driven more effectively and effectively under the combination of processing optimization of the regional control electric control unit and the data communication, and the intelligent driving safety and reliability of the vehicle are effectively improved.

Alternatively, since the ADAS may include a plurality of sensors and at least one target drive component, the respective sensors may be operated simultaneously, or may be partially operated, or may be all non-operated, or the like. Therefore, if the processing chip receives the source data collected by a certain sensor, the source data collected by the corresponding sensor can be preprocessed to obtain the corresponding preprocessed data.

The processing chip may preprocess the source data collected by the sensor in various manners, for example, may convert a data format, determine a data format, collect data, and the like, which is not limited in this application.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the source data sent to the central processing unit is greatly reduced through the preprocessing operation of the processing chip and the control operation of the control chip on the target driving component, and the data quantity to be processed by the central processing unit is obviously reduced, so that the occurrence of downtime and other conditions caused by overlarge data quantity is effectively avoided, the data processing efficiency in the vehicle is improved, and the normal work of the vehicle is ensured as much as possible.

Optionally, in this embodiment of the present application, an area controller supporting an ADAS may be included, or may also include a plurality of area controllers supporting ADASs, where each area controller supporting an ADAS may consider "near area division control" when set, so that the wiring harness cost and space occupation required by a plurality of electronic control units may be effectively reduced, that is, the area controller supporting an ADAS is advantageous, so that the area control may be more flexible, convenient and efficient, and further, the execution of the area control electronic control unit may make the whole vehicle intelligent driving more efficient and guaranteed under the combination of "area" execution and processing optimization of data communication, and effectively improve the safety and reliability of vehicle running.

It can be understood that, in combination with the trend of the new energy electronic and electric architecture and the situation environment of actual development, the ADAS-supporting regional controller provided in the present application is likely to be the former architecture of the central integrated architecture, that is, the architecture after the EEA transition phase, that is, the form of "intelligent control computing platform+intelligent driving computing platform+intelligent cabin computing platform+regional controller" in Zonal EEA Evolution as shown in the right part of fig. 2. Therefore, due to the central cross-domain fusion, the ADAS-supporting regional controller provided by the application can execute partial functions of original intelligent driving control, so that the cost and space occupation of a part of wire harnesses are saved, and the ADAS-supporting regional controller has a quite important role in development and research of vehicles.

In addition, because the regional controller provided by the embodiment of the application can support ADAS, namely, the regional controller can meet the requirement of basic hardware for data acquisition, can perform preliminary data processing and other operations by itself, namely, can perform small-scale processing of the ADAS, the development time is shorter, the cost is lower, and the functions of the vehicle can be better realized by matching with a central computing process through self-developed algorithm and the like, for example, the regional controller can comprise small-scale data models, data filtering and the like, and the regional controller is not limited in this application. Design of

Therefore, the area controller supporting ADAS provided by the embodiment of the application can effectively save the cost and space occupation of a considerable part of wire harnesses due to the characteristics of the area controller, meanwhile, the ADAS function can be realized more conveniently due to the control operation of the control chip on the ADAS auxiliary driving component, the regional control electric control unit can be executed under the combination of 'regional' execution and data communication processing optimization, the intelligent driving of the whole vehicle can be more efficient and guaranteed, and the driving safety and reliability of the vehicle are effectively improved.

Alternatively, the processing chip may be a System On Chip (SOC), i.e., a system on chip, which may be an integrated circuit with dedicated targets, such as may contain a complete system with embedded software. Meanwhile, the method can be a technology for realizing the whole process from the start of determining the system function to the division of software/hardware and completing the design, and the like, and the method is not limited in the application.

Alternatively, the control chip may be an MCU.

The micro control unit (microcontroller unit, MCU), which may be referred to as a single-chip microcomputer (single chipmicrocomputer), or a single-chip microcomputer, generally can properly reduce the frequency and specification of the central processing unit (central process unit, CPU), integrate peripheral interfaces such as memory (timer), USB, A/D conversion, UART, PLC, DMA, and the like, and even LCD driving circuits on a single chip to form a chip-level computer for different application occasions to perform different combination control. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the control chip can control the corresponding target driving component and the like based on the preprocessed data, and the MCU requirement is much lower than the domain controller cost, so that the chip type selection cost can be effectively reduced under the condition of meeting the minimum control requirement, the vehicle manufacturing cost can be effectively reduced, and the utilization rate is improved.

It can be appreciated that in the embodiments of the present application, the processing chip and the control chip may include a relatively rich communication interface and network interface.

The processing chip can perform data transmission with the corresponding sensor through the communication interface and the network interface by the data line, and the control chip can perform data transmission with the corresponding target driving component through the communication interface and the network interface by the data line.

The processing chip and the control chip can comprise at least one communication interface and at least one network interface. For example, the processing chip may include a plurality of communication interfaces and network interfaces, and the control chip may also include a plurality of communication interfaces and network interfaces, so that data transmission can be performed rapidly through the plurality of communication interfaces and network interfaces. In addition, the data line may be of various types, such as CAN bus, LIN bus, ethernet line, etc., which is not limited in this application.

For example, the processing chip and the control chip may each have an I/O interface, a CAN bus interface, a LIN bus interface, an Ethernet (Ethernet) interface, etc., for example, the I/O interface of the control chip may be connected to the target driving component, and the I/O interface of the processing chip may also be connected to the sensor; the CAN bus may be connected to a Node device 1 (CAN Node 1), the CAN Node1 may be connected to a further sensor, the CAN bus may also be connected to a Node device 2 (CAN Node 2), and the CAN Node2 may be connected to a further target drive component.

Alternatively, from the standpoint of the zone controller, the data transmission may be performed by the zone controller as a whole, and as shown in fig. 3, the zone controller (zonal ECU) may include a CAN bus interface, a LIN bus interface, an ethernet interface, or the like. Wherein the I/O interface 1 can be connected with a target driving component, and the I/O interface 2 can be connected with a sensor; the CAN bus may be connected to a Node device 1 (CAN Node 1), the CAN Node1 may be connected to a further sensor, the CAN bus may also be connected to a Node device 2 (CAN Node 2), and the CAN Node2 may be connected to a further target drive component.

Optionally, the processing chip may also perform data transmission with the corresponding sensor through the sensor IO data acquisition channel, where the sensor IO data acquisition channel may be a data channel of any type or specification, which is not limited in this application.

The foregoing examples are only illustrative, and are not intended to limit the area controller, the processing chip, the communication interface in the control chip, the network interface, and the like in the embodiments of the present application.

Optionally, a data line used for data transmission between the processing chip and the sensor is coupled with a data line used for data transmission between the control chip and the target driving component.

It can be appreciated that, due to the large number of sensors in the ADAS, the number of data lines required in the communication transmission process is also large, so that a large number of wire harnesses are generated, and when the area controller in the vehicle controls each component, the large number of data lines are also required, so that a large number of wire harnesses may exist, so that not only a large space is occupied, but also the weight is increased along with the increase of the number of wire harnesses, and the space utilization is low. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the combination development can be performed, and based on the coupling between the layout of each sensor in the ADAS and the layout of the area controller, the coupling between the data wires can be realized on the layout, namely, the data wires used for data transmission between the processing chip and the sensor can be coupled with the data wires used for data transmission between the control chip and the target driving component, so that part of wire harnesses are fused, the wiring can be simplified, the automation of a wire harness system assembly with a larger degree is supported, and the cost can be reduced.

Optionally, the processing chip and the control chip may use various data lines for data transmission, for example, the data lines may include a first data line and a second data line.

The transmission rate of the second data line is higher than that of the first data line. For example, the first data line may be a low-speed ethernet line, and the second data line may be a high-speed ethernet line, where a transmission rate of the high-speed ethernet line is higher than a transmission rate of the low-speed ethernet.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the low-speed ethernet may be used for data transmission, or the high-speed ethernet may also be used for data transmission, or the low-speed ethernet may also be used for data transmission, or the high-speed ethernet may also be used for data transmission, which is not limited in this application.

Alternatively, the MCU may have a plurality of cores, so that corresponding functions may be implemented by each core, and each function may be operated in parallel, so that operation and processing efficiency may be improved.

Each core of the MCU can support a virtual machine, so that each core of the MCU is combined with a corresponding virtual machine and can be used for realizing different functions.

For example, a multi-core MCU may allocate one function per core, the MCU may in turn support Virtual Machines (VMs), each VM may implement any of the functions. For example, the area driving control function may be implemented by VM1, the sensor data acquisition processing function may be implemented by VM2, the area power distribution function may be implemented by VM3, and the space downloading technique (over the ai r techno logy, OTA) may be implemented by VM 4.

Optionally, the MCU may also support an embedded multimedia card (embedded mu lt imed ia card, eMMC) interface, so that the updated firmware of other ECU or ADAS sensor may be placed in the external eMMC memory, and when a proper time is reached, program upgrade is performed on the other ECU or ADAS sensor, which is not limited in this application.

Alternatively, the zone controller may communicate with the target drive component and the sensor via a CAN bus, LIN bus, or the like. Accordingly, each sensor and the target driving part can be upgraded by OTA, and in this process, if the upgraded firmware is illegally tampered by a hacker in the process of transmission, serious consequences will be caused. Therefore, the area controller, the processing chip, the control chip and the like provided in the embodiments of the present application can support functions such as encryption transmission, signature verification, secure start and the like when data transmission is performed, for example, can support a symmetric encryption algorithm, an asymmetric encryption algorithm, a true random number generator and the like, and the present application is not limited thereto.

The present application also provides a vehicle that may include the regional controller and the central processor supporting the advanced driving assistance system provided by any of the embodiments.

The number and the setting positions of the regional controllers in the vehicle correspond to the calculation power of the central processing unit, so that the data processing efficiency can be effectively improved, the calculation power of the central processing unit cannot be crashed, and the reliability of vehicle data transmission is ensured.

It will be appreciated that the higher the computational power of the central processor, the greater the number of zone controllers, and the lower the computational power of the central processor, the lesser the number of zone controllers. Accordingly, in the case of a small number of zone controllers, the zone controllers may be provided at specific, indispensable positions in the vehicle; if the number of the zone controllers is relatively large, the zone controllers may be further provided at other locations based on the specific, indispensable location in the vehicle, and the like, which is not limited in this application.

In addition, OTA upgrades may be supported, such as updating software of the sensor and actuator (i.e., the driver component) mounted thereon, or updating software itself.

Because the regional controller provided by the embodiment of the application comprises the processing chip and the control chip, the data collected by the sensor can be locally classified in the regional controller, and the object source data and the like can be sent to the central processing unit, as shown in fig. 4. The data collected by the sensor can be preprocessed through the processing chip in the area controller, so that edge calculation is realized, the data sent into the central processing unit are all preprocessed effective data, the amount of the data to be processed is greatly reduced when the central processing unit continues to process the data, the data processing efficiency can be effectively improved, and meanwhile, the occurrence of downtime and the like caused by sending a large amount of data is avoided.

In addition, the main control MCU of the regional controller is provided with rich CAN and LIN communication interfaces and Ethernet interfaces, so that the regional controller CAN communicate with the sensor and the actuator (namely the target driving component) mounted on the regional controller through a CAN or LIN bus or communicate with a camera or other ADAS sensors through low-speed Ethernet or LVDS.

In addition, because there may be a problem of communication delay in the process of forwarding data by the regional controller, the high-speed ethernet and the low-speed ethernet in the regional controller provided in the embodiments of the present application may have different situations.

For example, the high-speed Ethernet may be connected to the Ethernet ring network (1 in/1 out), the low-speed Ethernet may be connected to an ADAS radar or a camera sensor, and the high-speed Ethernet may directly forward Ethernet frames through an inter-integrated high-speed Ethernet Bridge (G-Ethernet Bridge). The Ethernet frame forwarding can also be directly carried out between the low-speed Ethernet interfaces through a low-speed Ethernet Bridge (L-Ethernet Bridge), and the Ethernet frame forwarding can also be directly carried out between the low-speed Ethernet interfaces and the high-speed Ethernet interfaces through the low-speed Ethernet bridge+DRE+high-speed Ethernet Bridge, so that the delay time of data forwarding between the Ethernet interfaces can be greatly reduced, the data communication capacity of the data communication device is enhanced, and the transmission efficiency is improved.

Optionally, the processing chip SOC in the embodiment of the present application may also have an image signal processor (image signal processor, ISP) that may be used to take an original image as input data and then process the original image into a video stream capable of meeting various customer requirements, while the SOC may be equipped with a multi-core radar processor with several high performance transmitters, receivers, a multi-core radar processor with a hardware accelerator, and a gigabit ethernet communication interface, and the specific model, specification, and the like of the SOC are not limited in this application.

Therefore, the regional controller provided by the embodiment of the application can meet the requirements of sensor data acquisition, processing and data communication in ADAS combined development, and the MCU adopts a software architecture meeting the related standards, can process high-real-time application, and improves the driving capability, driving efficiency, control precision and system stability of the power assembly system; the SOC supports a service-oriented architecture (service oriented architecture, SOA), so that the ADAS sensor can meet the requirements of video processing, radar data acquisition and complex operation processing, gateway related functions and vehicle-mounted communication encryption requirements can be supported, unified OTA upgrading is realized, data interaction is performed between the SOC and the MCU through a high-speed Ethernet and serial peripheral interface (serial peripheral Interface, SPI), ADAS edge preprocessing data is transmitted to a central computing platform for summarization, and therefore information communication efficiency can be effectively improved.
