There is an urgent need for a new network topology architecture to meet the needs.

[0004] To this end, a micro new energy vehicle network topology architecture is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This invention plans 4 CAN channels and 1 LIN channel, solving the problem of excessive network load caused by adding functions such as vehicle stability control (ESC), forward collision warning (FCW), lane departure warning (LDW), and door opening warning (DOW).

[0024] P-CAN is the power CAN, which is connected to the motor controller MCU, battery management system BMS, electronic control integrated circuit CDU and hand-shift switch;

[0025] C-CAN is the chassis intelligent driving CAN, which is connected to the body electronic stability control system ESC, electronic parking brake system EPB, electronic power steering system EPS and airbag ACU / EDR;

[0026] B-CAN is the vehicle body information CAN, which is connected to the EAC electric air conditioner, ECC compressor, low-speed voice alarm AVAS, infotainment system IVI and instrument cluster IC;

[0027] The electronic steering column lock, electric tailgate, light and rain sensor and ambient lighting are connected to the LIN network.

[0028] Each communication module needs to be developed in accordance with the communication protocol, network requirement specifications and other information provided by the OEM, and can only be installed on the vehicle for verification after passing the network consistency test and bench test.

[0029] In addition to the above development, BCM (GW) also needs to develop software according to the gateway routing table provided by the OEM and pass the test verification by the network engineer.

[0030] OEM network engineers need to test and verify the vehicle network compatibility at different stages of vehicle development to achieve acceptance goals.
