    Aiming at the “autonomous service vehicle” with driverless attributes and specific functional attributes, such as driverless delivery vehicles and sweeper, this paper firstly interprets the relevant domestic and foreign policies, and sorts out the policy suggestions and management mode exploration. Secondly, it investigates the application scenarios and key technologies of autonomous service vehicle that have been applied in the ground, including the drive-by-wire chassis, control system, human-computer interaction and supervision platform, and the standards that can be referred to in its design. Through policy analysis, product features and key technologies, the problems and requirements of design, manufacturing, access and supervision faced by the whole life cycle of autonomous service vehicle are deepened. Based on this, suggestions on the construction of a regulatory system are put forward from the aspects of technical standards and certification, testing and evaluation, information security, supervision and law enforcement, and international cooperation.

    With the development of automotive electronics industry, AUTOSAR has gradually become the mainstream development architecture of Oems and parts suppliers, and is used in the development of vehicle domain controller application software. However, the development process of applying AUTOSAR to vehicle domain controller application software is not perfect, and there is a lack of general, comprehensive and efficient application software development method. To solve this problem, based on the basic theory of AUTOSAR, the system architecture and related interfaces of AUTOSAR are expounded, and the whole process of extracting data dictionary content from ARXML file, generating interface model, building control model, generating model code and releasing application code is proposed. The proposed development method of vehicle domain controller application software adopts mature development tools or automated scripts to realize each link, which ensures the universality of the method, can ensure the quality of software development, improve the efficiency of software development, and thus reduce the development cost.

    By introducing wireless charging into the field of electric vehicles, the convenience and safety of electric vehicle charging can be effectively improved, and users can complete charging without plugging and unplugging the charging gun, which greatly reduces the extra burden of charging on users. To address the complex application scenario involving multiple vehicles and multiple charging piles, a multi-to-multi wireless charging system solution based on central node architecture is necessary. First, the concept of a central node is introduced among the ground-side equipment, with the central node responsible for managing multiple ground-side devices. The central node communicates with these devices via the Controller Area Network (CAN), forming a local network. Second, the solution proposes a set of addressing and communication mechanisms within the local network to effectively manage the ground-side devices. Finally, in order to realize that the vehicle assemblies can recognize each other with any ground assemblies, this solution introduces a method to recognize the ground assemblies by detecting the ground coil current frequency.

    Aiming at the problems of complicated and repetitive integration and testing which are inefficient in automotive electronics software development, a continuous integration system for automotive engine ECU software based on Jenkins is designed. This method combines Jenkins continuous integration technology and automotive embedded software development technology and connects development process nodes into an automated process which is called Jenkins-based electronics software continuous integration technology. The development process nodes include SVN software version management, HighTec integrated compilation, remote flashing of target ECU, software integration test and mail notification. This Jenkins system can substaintially shorten the development cycle of software iterative upgrades and avoid human integration operation errors.

    Currently, foreign automotive control chips dominate the design and development of powertrain domain controllers. To address this technological bottleneck, there is a growing trend towards adopting domestically produced chips alongside domestically developed AUTOSAR operating systems. The research focuses on the application and optimization of data caching technology. In response to the challenge of cache data consistency encountered in the development of domestically produced chips, various mechanisms for data synchronization and optimization schemes for cache strategy have been proposed, effectively mitigating the risk of data inconsistency. Furthermore, by designing efficient data caching strategies, the instruction execution efficiency of the controller has been significantly improved, and experiments have been designed to verify these improvements.

    In order to meet the system performance requirements, lithium-ion batteries usually need to be used in groups in practical use, but there are inconsistency problems between different battery monomers, such as internal resistance, voltage and self-discharge rate. These differences will reduce the energy utilization of the battery pack, service life, and may jeopardize the safety of the battery system. Equalization technology is an effective means to solve this problem. The principle of equalization is analyzed in depth, and common topologies of equalization circuits are introduced in detail. The development status of equalization technology is sorted out, and the advantages and disadvantages of existing equalization topologies are analyzed. At the same time, the new technologies and solutions ememerging in recent years are studied. On the basis of analyzing the difficulties existing in the current equalization technology, the direction of future research and development is proposed.
