You can also use your own simulation models or third-party models. They are available for standard automotive applications, including battery management systems, driver assistance systems with environment and sensor simulation, electric motors, diesel engines, gasoline engines, and vehicle dynamics. The Automotive Simulation Models (ASMs) are complete and independent models that support all relevant phases of model-based design. You can seamlessly transfer a Simulink block diagram to dSPACE SCALEXIO hardware via code generated by Simulink Coder™ and dSPACE ConfigurationDesk.ĭSPACE offers open Simulink models for HIL simulation that give life to your dSPACE simulation system. After developing a simulation model in Simulink, you can test it on any PC with dSPACE VEOS and in real time on SCALEXIO using the same layouts, test scripts, and parameter sets. The tight integration of dSPACE software with MATLAB and Simulink provides a powerful development environment. The tests are very systematic and completely safe, even if critical thresholds are exceeded, and let you reproduce ECU errors whenever and however required.

You can also use HIL to determine if your physical system (plant) model is valid.

HIL simulation shows how your controller responds in real time to realistic virtual stimuli.

You use HIL simulation to test your controller design. DSPACE ® SCALEXIO for HIL simulation enables you to test new electronic control units (ECUs) and software largely in a virtual environment, without real vehicles or prototypes. Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation is a type of real-time simulation.
