This paper presents an extended OMNeT++ framework for developing and testing automotive Ethernet networks, integrating protocol implementation and middleware connectivity for improved simulation and prototyping.
Contribution
It introduces the use of OMNeT++ for automotive Ethernet network development, employs existing models for HiL testing, and implements the SOME/IP(-SD) protocol.
Findings
Enhanced simulation capabilities for automotive Ethernet networks.
Enables hardware-in-the-loop testing with existing models.
Facilitates rapid prototyping of automotive network protocols.
Abstract
In this paper, the network simulation framework OMNeT++ is used for development and testing of automotive Ethernet-Networks. Therefore OMNeT++ is extended by the INET framework. It is augmented by an implementation of the protocol SOME/IP (-SD) and an connector to the middleware Gamma V. The middleware is used to configure the network by initialization. Additionally data, which is sent over the network, can be changed on the fly. The contribution of this work regards three main aspects: First, the use of OMNeT++ for network development in automotive industry. Second, the employment of an existing simulation model and using it as restbus simulation for Hardware in the Loop (HiL) testing or rapid prototyping. Finally, the implementation of SOME/IP(-SD) into OMNeT++.
