Introduction

Purpose of the Safety Plan


This Safety Plan provides a framework for the assurance of Functional Safety throughout the
Lane Assistance System project through concept, development, production, and operation,
according to ISO 26262 principles.

Scope of the Project


For the lane assistance project, the following safety lifecycle phases are in scope:

Concept phase
Product Development at the System Level
Product Development at the Software Level

The following phases are out of scope:

Product Development at the Hardware Level


Production and Operation

Deliverables of the Project

The deliverables of the project are:

Safety Plan
Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment
Functional Safety Concept
Technical Safety Concept
Software Safety Requirements and Architecture
Item Definition

The item defined here is a simplified version of a Lane Assistance System, which is a type of
Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). The Lane Assistance System helps the vehicle’s
driver keep the vehicle centered in the ego lane by both warning about lane departures and
augmenting driver control to remain within the lane. It consists of two main functions - Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Keeping Assistance (LKA).

The System consists of four Sub-Systems - the Camera Sensor, the Car Display, the Electronic
Power Steering, and the Electronic Power Steering ECU. The architecture is described in the
figure and text below.

• Lane Departure Warning (LDW): This function of the System detects lane lines using
the Camera Sub-System, applies an oscillating torque to the steering wheel for haptic
feedback when the vehicle departs the ego lane using the Electronic Power Steering
Sub-System, and presents a warning light on the Car Display Sub-System.
• Lane Keeping Assistance (LKA): If the driver doesn’t respond to the LDW, this function
of the System adds steering torque to move the vehicle back to the center of the ego
lane using the Electronic Power Steering Sub-System, and additionally provides a
warning light on the Car Display Sub-System that it is doing this.
Goals and Measures

Goals
The goal of this Safety Plan is to analyze the functional safety case for the Lane Assistance
System using the ISO 26262 principles. We identify scenarios of risk within or caused by the
electrical and electronic components of the System, quantify the risk of those scenarios, and
attempt to eliminate or reduce those risks to an acceptable level.

Safety Culture
Our organization has the following characteristics of a good safety culture:

• High priority: safety has the highest priority among competing constraints like cost and
productivity
• Accountability: processes ensure accountability such that design decisions are
traceable back to the people and teams who made the decisions
• Rewards: the organization motivates and supports the achievement of functional safety
• Penalties: the organization penalizes shortcuts that jeopardize safety or quality
• Independence: teams who design and develop a product should be independent from
the teams who audit the work
• Well defined processes: company design and management processes should be
clearly defined
• Resources: projects have necessary resources including people with appropriate skills
• Diversity: intellectual diversity is sought after, valued and integrated into processes
• Communication: communication channels encourage disclosure of problems

Safety Lifecycle Tailoring


For the Lane Assistance System project, the following safety lifecycle phases are in scope:

1. Concept phase
2. Product Development at the System Level
3. Product Development at the Software Level

The following phases are out of scope:

• Product Development at the Hardware Level


• Production and Operation

Development Interface Agreement


The Development Interface Agreement (DIA) defines the roles and responsibilities between
companies involved in developing a product. The DIA also specifies what evidence and work
products each party will provide to prove that work was done according to the agreement. The
ultimate goal is to ensure that all parties are developing safe vehicles in compliance with ISO
26262. All involved parties need to agree on the contents of the DIA before the project begins.

Here are the responsibilities of each party to the DIA.

Organization Responsibilities

OEM • Manage the overall functional safety project


• Plan, coordinate, develop the Lane Assistance System on item level
• Provide information support to Tier 1 organization
• Audit the functional safety of the System
• Assess the functional safety of the System
Tier-1 • Plan, coordinate, and document the development phase of the safety
lifecycle
• Maintain the Safety Plan
• Monitor progress against the safety plan
• Perform pre-audits before the safety auditor
• Develop, integrate, and test the required hardware and software changes
to the System
Confirmation Measures
Confirmation measures serve two purposes:
• that a functional safety project conforms to ISO 26262
• that the project really does make the vehicle safer

The people who carry out confirmation measures need to be independent from the people who
actually developed the project.

Confirmation Review
Ensures that the project complies with ISO 26262. As the product is designed and developed,
an independent person would review the work to make sure ISO 26262 is being followed.

Functional safety audit


Checking to make sure that the actual implementation of the project conforms to the safety plan
is called a functional safety audit.

Functional safety assessment


Confirming that plans, designs and developed products actually achieve functional safety is
called a functional safety assessment.
