Why Automotive Ethernet ?
Source: BMW
ı Higher data throughput is required for ADAS like rear view or
surround view camera systems
ı Low latency is required for ADAS like for adaptive cruise
control etc.
ı Industry standards need to be integrated to save cost:
100BASE-T1 instead of MOST
ı Reuse of TCP/IP in different application (flashing, camera,
smart antennas) helps to reduce complexity
ı Ethernet standards like Audio Video-Bridging, Time Sensitive
Networks enable new applications
ı Unshielded Twisted Pair cabling to save cost

Radar sensor to ADAS
controller moves to
100/1000BASE-T1
Sensor fusion will use
10GBASE-T1
Smart antennas have
1000BASE-T1
Backbone
100/1000BASE-T1Connection to display,
antenna etc based on
100/1000BASE-T1- AVB etc.
