Japanese proposal for false positive testing of automated emergency steering systems.

OICA-CLEPA perspectives on the definition and use of Category C lane-change systems, especially emphasizing the need for human supervision (SAE Level 2 automation).

Diagrams to illustrate Japan’s proposal (ACSF-13-13) for false-positive testing of emergency steering functions.

Regulation No. 53 currently allows for the activation of the stop lamp by application of the brakes only. As already presented at a session of the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE) (see ECE/TRANS/WP29/GRE/2015/42), IMMA is proposing to introduce the activation of stop lamps under more conditions than the application of the service brake only, e.g. also by regenerative braking. As noted in the report of seventy-fourth session of GRE, see ECE/TRANS/WP29/GRE/74, para. 30: “the proposal might need to be accompanied by a modification of Regulation No. 78 under GRRF.” Therefore, IMMA has prepared this proposal for Regulation No. 78. A revised corresponding proposal on Regulation No. 53 will also be submitted to the October 2017 session of GRE.

UN R13 allows for the exemption of certain vehicles from the requirement for electronic stability controls (footnote 12). This proposal (following proposals GRRF/2016/27 as amended by GRRF-82-03 and proposal GRRF-83-31) seeks to clarify the scope of the exemptions to include any special purpose vehicle with a non-standard chassis. The change was prompted by a modified vehicle where use of ESC was not feasible, but where the current UN R13 language left doubt as to whether the ESC requirement was applicable.

Proposal to simplify the verification of the sufficient movement on the balancer without having to take measurements underneath the trailer in a potentially unsafe position.

Revised proposal pursuant to GRRF discussions to enable activation of the ESC optical symbol in cases of a corrective steering function intervention when the CSF intervention is activated under the control of an ESC system. The aim is to avoid separate requirements for brake-actuated and steering-actuated vehicle stability functions (VSF) that would lead to two optical warnings where only one is necessary. This would enable use of the ESC intervention tell-tale for CSF steering intervention.

Proposal to align GTR No. 3 with technical progress, addressing among others: electromagnetic compatibility/immunity of ABS-systems, ABS performance requirements for category 3-5 vehicles (three-wheelers), uniform requirements for equipment such Emergency Stop Signal and the means to disable the ABS, if equipped. This amendment aims to harmonize GTR with recent amendments made to UN Regulation No. 78 while addressing its use under self-certification compliance systems.

Technical report to accompany the proposal for amendment 3 (concerning mainly ABS issues) to GTR 3.

Proposal to restrict manual deactivation of AEB systems to speeds under 30 km/h. The proposal would require automatic reactivation of the AEBS when the vehicle speed exceeds 30 km/h.

Netherlands proposal for incorporating the UN Regulation on software systems (under development within the Cybersecurity/OTA task force) into UN Regulation No. 79 on steering. UN R79 is being updated to address the approval of automated steering functions. This document is a version of the regulation with a new paragraph 5.1.11.: “The performance of the steering system shall not be adversely affected by the software present in the system. This shall be demonstrated by compliance with the technical requirements and transitional provisions of Regulation No. X[Software Regulations], series of amendments or any later series of amendments.”

German proposal concerning performance requirements for rear and side view assistance systems defined as “a system that provides assistance to the driver in monitoring a defined area to the rear and to the side of the ACSF vehicle by the use of means (e.g. Radar, Lidar, Camera) whereby the driver remains in the full responsibility to surveil the traffic behind and beside the ACSF vehicle.”

OICA-CLEPA proposals for improvement of the draft text pursuant to open issues from the previous ACSF informal group session.

Proposals concerning capabilities and requirements for ultra-sonic sensors, radar systems, and blind-spot detection and view on HMI and C1-C2 mode confusion issue.

Presentation covering

1. Lane change functional test
2. Abort of lane change test
3. Overriding force test
4. Deactivation test
5. Sensor performance test
6. Sensor blindness test (industry proposal)
7. Engine start/run cycle test (three phases)

OICA-CLEPA “homework” input addressing open issues from the previous ACSF informal group session.

Following bench testing of steering override force of 50 N, all participants concurred that the 50 N force can be easily handled and therefore is appropriate for all categories of CSF, ACSF, and ESF systems.

Draft proposal for automated lane-change and related functions including open issues for consideration prior to the next ACSF informal group session.
