An Automated Driving System (ADS) may encounter infinite scenarios in the real world, making it impossible to test every scenario in simulation. To address this, we previously introduced the Simulation-Based Safety Testing Scenario Selection (SSTSS) process, which prioritizes and selects scenarios for simulation-based safety testing of ADS. In this paper, we select the top-prioritized scenario identified by the SSTSS process to evaluate the safety behavior of UT-ADS, an ADS developed at the University of Tartu. We simulate a “Follow Lead Vehicle” scenario to evaluate if UT-ADS maintains a safe following distance as per the Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS) model. Our preliminary simulation results show that UT-ADS maintains safe following distances at lower speeds but violates the RSS minimum safe distances at higher speeds. Our simulation results could provide useful feedback for UT-ADS developers.

摘要

An Automated Driving System (ADS) may encounter infinite scenarios in the real world, making it impossible to test every scenario in simulation. To address this, we previously introduced the Simulation-Based Safety Testing Scenario Selection (SSTSS) process, which prioritizes and selects scenarios for simulation-based safety testing of ADS. In this paper, we select the top-prioritized scenario identified by the SSTSS process to evaluate the safety behavior of UT-ADS, an ADS developed at the University of Tartu. We simulate a “Follow Lead Vehicle” scenario to evaluate if UT-ADS maintains a safe following distance as per the Responsibility-Sensitive Safety (RSS) model. Our preliminary simulation results show that UT-ADS maintains safe following distances at lower speeds but violates the RSS minimum safe distances at higher speeds. Our simulation results could provide useful feedback for UT-ADS developers.
