• Abstract: Nowadays, the increasing complexity of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Automated Driving (AD) means that the industry must move towards a scenario-based approach to validation rather than relying on established technology-based methods. This new focus also requires the validation process to take into account Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF), as many scenarios may trigger hazardous vehicle behaviour. Thus, this work demonstrates how the integration of the SOTIF process within an existing validation tool suite can be achieved. The necessary adaptations are explained with accompanying examples to aid comprehension of the approach.

  The ISO/PAS 21448 guidance recommends a process to ensure the Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF) for road vehicles. For the path planning function, defining the correct sequence of control actions for each vehicle in all potential driving situations is intractable. We establish that Rulebooks provide a functional description of the path planning task in an AV and discuss the potential usage of the method for verification and validation.
