Document prepared by Japan and the European Commission on behalf of the Informal Working Group on Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS). It provides the status of the proposed regulation through November 2018 in order to provide a basis for review and discussion during the January 2019 GRVA session.

Proposal to clarify the assessments to be conducted by a technical service for complex electronic systems, particularly with regard to advanced driver assistance systems. The proposal includes a new definition to ensure the assessment includes system response to changes in the ambient and/or operating conditions, provisions to ensure that any disabled functions intended for use on a production vehicle are declared and assessed, and a footnote to clarify that the assessment must be reviewed and signed by the same type approval authority as the one responsible for issuing the approval to UN R79.

Proposal from the Task Force on Cyber Security and Over-The-Air Software Update Issues for recommendations on requirements for the certification of software updates and processes to ensure their safe execution, including proposals for a new UN Regulation on uniform provisions concerning the approval of software updates processes and for the establishment of software identification numbers (RXSWIN).

Proposal, based on document GRRF-86-13, to resolve measurement concerns in the test requirements for ACSF of Category B1 and C. The proposal addresses issues identified in Annex 8, improves reproducibility and robustness of the procedures, fills in gaps in the test cases, and provides additional details on measuring equipment and test execution.

Proposal to clarify requirements of the optical signal for a CSF intervention to ensure sufficient flashing tell-tale visibility for the driver, to specify the duration of such ACSF signals, to ensure a safe hierarchy of signals (e.g., ESF over CSF) by priority, to clarify that deactivation when departing an ODD means the “off mode”, and to add a cross-reference pointing to paragraphs that define cases of manual and automatic deactivation.
