Abstract

This work presents a distributed real-time simulation setup for automated driving function testing in urban environments. In the automotive domain, a large number of simulation frameworks are utilized which are tailored towards a specific application. However, virtual testing of automated driving functions requires a holistic simulation of realistic urban traffic environments. We set up a distributed simulation framework, integrated an ego-vehicle and linked a pedestrian simulator. Further, we developed a pedestrian behavior model, which is able to interact with all agents of the different simulation instances. Our simulation setup was evaluated from different perspectives including a performance test and comparing the developed model to real life data.
