HANDLING FAULTS IN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

An autonomous vehicle's control systems include an A-kit module that operates autonomy logic to generate a desired trajectory from sensor data. A B-kit module receives the desired trajectory and generates inputs for actuators such as steering, brake and throttle actuators based on the desired t...

Zusammenfassung:An autonomous vehicle's control systems include an A-kit module that operates autonomy logic to generate a desired trajectory from sensor data. A B-kit module receives the desired trajectory and generates inputs for actuators such as steering, brake and throttle actuators based on the desired trajectory. Safing logic (which may be located in the A-kit, B-kit, both the A-kit and the B-kit or elsewhere within or outside of the vehicle) receives a sensor fault indication and executes a contingency trajectory such as a safing maneuver to bring the vehicle to a safe state.
