Abstract

The concepts of future mobility such as autonomous, connected, electric and shared vehicles are bringing a huge revolution to the automotive sector. We are seeing technologies typical from data centers fully embedded into vehicles, shifting from a mechanical-centric product, to an electronics-centric one. All the sensors and actuators embedded in vehicles need to exchange data in real time, in a safe and reliable way. As a result, the field of in-vehicle network (IVN) processing is currently an active research area. In previous work, we derived the requirements of future vehicle network processors and analyzed the state of the art of network processing platforms. From our study we concluded that there is currently no solution available capable of fulfilling all the requirements with the right level of performance. Now, in this work, we evaluate the novel Elastic Gateway (eGW) architecture which aims at fulfilling this gap, advancing towards future Gateway System/Network on Chip (SoC/NoC) solutions. Elastic Gateway SoC concept aims at synthesizing a scalable and future proof architecture embracing all new and already established functions and features demanded in a zonal gateway controller for the new era of mobility. It is composed of a set of configurable IP cores that allow for a full HW-based datapath implementation targeting good enough Quality of Service (QoS) and the minimum possible latency. We provide details of the internal architecture and how the different technologies required in future IVNs are integrated in eGW. With this, we are able to show how eGW meets the requirements of future network processing devices, enabling thus the current revolution.

弹性网关系统级芯片设计:用于在线车载网络处理的以硬件为中心的架构
自动驾驶汽车、互联汽车、电动汽车和共享汽车等未来交通概念正在给汽车行业带来一场巨大的变革。我们看到,数据中心的典型技术已完全嵌入汽车,从以机械为中心的产品转变为以电子为中心的产品。汽车中嵌入的所有传感器和执行器都需要以安全可靠的方式实时交换数据。因此,车载网络(IVN)处理领域目前是一个活跃的研究领域。在之前的工作中,我们提出了未来车载网络处理器的要求,并分析了网络处理平台的技术现状。通过研究,我们得出结论,目前还没有一种解决方案能够以适当的性能水平满足所有要求。现在,在这项工作中,我们评估了新颖的弹性网关(eGW)架构,该架构旨在填补这一空白,向未来的网关系统/片上网络(SoC/NoC)解决方案迈进。弹性网关 SoC 概念旨在合成一个可扩展的、面向未来的架构,包含新移动时代区域网关控制器所需的所有新功能和已建立的功能与特性。它由一组可配置的 IP 内核组成,可实现基于硬件的全数据路径,以达到足够好的服务质量(QoS)和尽可能小的延迟。我们详细介绍了内部架构,以及如何将未来 IVN 所需的不同技术集成到 eGW 中。因此,我们能够展示 eGW 如何满足未来网络处理设备的要求,从而推动当前的革命。

期刊介绍: Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications: Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications Channel modelling, modulating and coding Congestion Control and scalability issues Protocol design, testing and verification Routing in vehicular networks Security issues and countermeasures Deployment and field testing Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles Wireless in–car networks Data collection and dissemination methods Mobility and handover issues Safety and driver assistance applications UAV Underwater communications Autonomous cooperative driving Social networks Internet of vehicles Standardization of protocols.
