OICA-CLEPA proposals for amendments to the draft corrective steering/ACSF B1 amendments to UN R79 (revisions to GRRF-82-12/Rev.3 approved at GRRF-82 and subsequently submitted for the March 2017 WP.29 session as WP.29/2017/10).

Proposal for category C automated steering requirements.

Presentation of concept for test procedures and performance requirements for the assessment of automated steering as a collision avoidance/mitigation countermeasure.

Corrected version of the presentation delivered in January 2017.

Supporting argument in favor of developing provisions for the approval of category C automated steering systems.

ACSF informal group working document on requirements for Category C ACSF systems based upon the proposals submitted by Germany and Japan.

OICA concern over the provision whereby a Category B1 system can only be reactivated by a deliberate action of the driver after the system has been switched off. This provision could be problematic should lane-keeping systems become mandatory to the extent that it could be interpreted as meaning that the system cannot be “default-on” after such a manual deactivation.

Presentation addressing

• 2 Step Initiation (by two deliberate actions)
• Monitoring to the rear and to the side
• Restriction to a designated infrastructure
• Hands On during lane change manouevre

Presentation on the detection of the range of a vehicle approaching from behind a vehicle operating under automatically commanded steering (e.g., detection of a fast approaching vehicle in order to avoid a dangerous lane change).

Proposal to delete obsolete paragraphs and amend the target completion date for the informal group’s work from September 2017 to September 2018.

Proposal of 2.5 seconds for return to original lane after aborted lane change with 48.6-meter rearward sensing range (34.7-meter minimum distance for 2.5 seconds plus one second safety margin).

Presentation of technical capabilities and constraints for radar systems.

OICA revision of the German/Japan draft text for Category C1 ACSF.

Results of the April Amsterdam meeting to understand boundary conditions for rearward detection radar systems (essential to Category C lane-change ACSF).

Discussion of requirements for minimum distance from approaching vehicles for a safe automated lane-change maneuver.

Draft proposal for an automated steering function to detect a potential collision and steer the vehicle in order to avoid or mitigate the impact.

Working draft proposal concerning the approval of automated lane-change systems where the automated maneuver is initiated by a deliberate action of the driver (e.g., activation of direction indicator).

Updated information, including new meeting rooms.
