ABSTRACT The paper addresses the research question, how the depending criteria effectiveness, acceptance, controllability and functional safety can be evaluated for automated driving. A methodology is proposed, which considers already the vehicle development process starting at a very early stage.
On the basis of a systematic overview and classification on safety evaluation methods a development and evaluation methodology is discussed, in which system, vehicle, driver and the traffic environment are either represented virtually or experimentally. The database of relevant driving situations is described. Relevant driving situations are collected from different sources. These are applied in simulation, driving simulator or driving tests on test tracks. The comprehensive concept for a systematic evaluation of automated driving makes use of the valuable data obtained when performing tests on any kind of public roads. Secondly it makes sure that relevant situations are used in a consistent and effective manner.
