Typically, ADS-equipped vehicles operate within certain boundaries specified by an operational design domain (ODD), utilizing the relevant implemented BCs. Nonetheless, many regulatory and standardization-relevant documents employ BC attributes in a non-harmonized manner. The study delves into BC-related activities and applications throughout the entire ADS life cycle, affecting all aspects of the ADS value chain, to gain a deeper understanding of the diverse needs of various stakeholders. BCs are linked to one of the four primary requirement sources at the system level. ADS-related BCs are defined through a multidisciplinary approach driven by their underlying core operating principle: the well-known sense-plan-act cycle. The crucial element within the BC specification is the identified manoeuvre pool, which forms the basis for implementing any route from point A to point B. The individual manoeuvres within the manoeuvre pool are defined by considering the needs of multiple stakeholders. They are based on three essential components: the initial condition, the expected manoeuvre, and the final condition. Furthermore, trustworthy behaviour competencies are specified, encompassing three pillars: robustness, ethics, and lawfulness. Following a detailed stakeholder analysis, several related applications are discussed to highlight the concrete advantages of implementing standardized BCs. The study concludes with a summary of the impact analysis, emphasizing key findings and action points. Lastly, a roadmap is proposed to integrate trustworthy BCs into future ADS. Concretely, the authors developed the following innovations within the scope of this article: (1) Concept for trustworthy behaviour competencies driven by law, ethics, and robustness. (2) Robustness is defined as passenger &amp; ODD awareness and plannable &amp; executable manoeuvre. (3) Manoeuvre pool necessary to implement an arbitrary route from point A to point B. (4) Manoeuvre specification via initial condition, expected behaviour, and final condition.

The observer can efficiently reconstruct spatially distributed biological, chemical, or ecological invasion-like processes by applying only a limited number of measurements. Using Lyapunov techniques, it is demonstrated that the proposed observer ensures the convergence of the estimated state to the true state, although the system’s nonlinearity does not satisfy globally the Lipschitz condition.

In particular, when operating in cluttered environments, there has been growing interest in methods that utilize sampling-based techniques for coarse path planning, followed by subsequent optimization. However, many such frameworks still violate several constraints under certain conditions or produce low-quality trajectories from the perspective of the total duration or other criteria. Thus, in this study, we propose a novel trajectory-planning algorithm that ensures that the produced trajectories satisfy all constraints, including the vehicle-kinematic and collision avoidance. The proposed algorithm is structured hierarchically: first, it employs the Hybrid A* algorithm to plan a coarse path, and this is subsequently optimized within an optimal control framework. A key aspect of this approach is the use of barrier function-based optimization to ensure constraint satisfaction. To utilize the barrier function, a feasible initial trajectory is essential. To generate a strictly feasible initial trajectory that adheres to the Hybrid A* path, we introduce a new discrete-time model for the general bicycle model. This model aligns with the analytical solutions of continuous-time differential equations when the steering angle is constant and maintains high accuracy even with varying steering angles. We evaluate the effectiveness of our method through a comparison with existing methods, finding that our approach successfully generates trajectories that satisfy all constraints in scenarios where others fail.
