Abstract - Global warming and pollution are on the rise. The
emission of CO2 is one of the main reasons for it. Of the total
CO2 emissions, the transportation sector contributes to about
14%. The emission of the CO2 does not happen only when the
car is running, but also when the car is in a standstill (the
engine idles). There was a need to implement a system that
would stop the engine of the vehicle when it is not running
hence reducing emissions. Start - Stop feature (ISG or “Idle
Stop and Go”) shuts off the engine when the engine idles while
the vehicle is at standstill (like, at a traffic). However, since
this feature is engine critical, it is of prime importance to
design a safety mechanism to deal with system faults. This
paper focuses on implementation of start-stop feature with
robust deactivation logic. This is done by considering various
inputs from the brake, body and interior devices, electrical
supply system, and other vehicular systems as well as
analyzing all possible error cases. The software developed in
Embedded C is flashed into the engine control unit (ECU) via
the controller area network (CAN) bus and was simulated in
the LABCAR to get results.

1. INTRODUCTION
For the increasing air pollution and global warming issue
nowadays, it seems urgent to develop a new generation of
automotive with low fuel consumption and emission. This
can be achieved by using the vehicleswithstart-stopfeature.
The start-stop technology savefuel byshuttingoffthe engine
when the vehicle is at a stop, such as traffic light and restart
engine instantly when the driver accelerates the vehicle to
proceed [1]. The start-stop technology helps to both the
vehicle manufacturer aswell asthevehicleowner.According
to available data, the fuel benefitofstartandstopapplication
is 4–6%.
The development ofvehicles withcombustionengine,hybrid
vehicles or electrical vehicles leads to an increasing
complexity of the power train. In engine start-stop control
strategy in series-parallel hybridsystemisdiscussed[2]. The
technology helps to reduce emissions to achieve stringent
emission norm. The efficacious idle start stop system, which
uses mild hybrid technology and intelligent traffic control
algorithm, is discussed [3]. Several small electric vehicles
have been developed with various features such as
autonomous obstacle avoidance systems [4-5]. These
technological developments are focused on several features,
however not concerned with energy source and efficiency.
In this paper we are implemented the deactivation logic for
start-stop featured passenger vehicle using LABCAR model.
2. BLOCK DIAGRAM
Figure 1 shows that systemarchitectureofstart-stopsystem.
Start-stop system architecture shows several systems
within the car send release and request signals that
determine the state of working.
ISG implementation requires a Start/ stopcoordinatoralong
with several inputs that decide the state of the coordinator.
The start-stop coordinator module is the main part of the
system and has interfaces with several systemslikethermal,
electrical supply, brake, body interior, gear, human machine
interface and engine systems.
Fig-1: System architecture of start-stop system
Engine coordinator – Engine coordinator provides the
current and previous states of the engine and monitors the
start and stop states as well as the engine speed signal.
Various states like the standby, ready, starting, auto stop,
running stopping and finish are distinguished. Sometimes
the engine will be stalled due to an unsuccessful attempt to
start or due to start / stop functionalityorsomedrivererror.
Body and interior devices - In this component door status
signal and seat belt status signal are acquired via CAN
interface
Thermal system - This component coordinates the
demands to the thermal system. It provides the desired
relative air mass flow to the engine compartment originated](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v6i793-191101071619/85/IRJET-Implementation-of-Ideal-Stop-and-Go-Deactivation-Logic-for-Passenger-Vehicle-1-320.jpg)

The best way to compile a list of all the faults is by looking
into all the interfaces that act as inputs to the coordinator as
well as considering all the system related faults that affect
ISG functionality directly or indirectly. Further, these faults
are classified based on the transmission type. Hence, there
are AT Faults, MT faults and Common faults (which affect
automatic and manual transmission systems alike).Figure.5
shows the deactivation logic block diagram. The presence of
a fault resets the State machine as well as indicates to the
driver about ISG deactivated status via the display cluster.
This ensures that necessary actions can be taken.

5. METHOD OF TESTING
As per the V – Model, different test methods are used in each
level to validate the design.
Testing in Lab car: Lab car is a compact real time testing
system for automotive embedded control units. It contain
electrical loads to simulate different types of loads in a
vehicle
Closed loop systems: Closed Loop systems are used for
Hardware in the Loop Testing, it is also called LCPT (Closed
Loop Power Train). It consists of a LABCAR, ECU and testPC.
It differs from open loop systems in the sense that there is
feedback from the systems is shown in Figure 6
Fig 6.Closed Loop Testing
In closed loop testing system, Software is generated using
ASCET and ECU is flashed with Hex and A2L generated by
software build using INCA tool. The ECU is also connected to
a break out box that can be used to tap the ECU signals to
take measurements. INCA tools are used for development of
ECU and testing the ECU
6. SIMULATION RESULTS
If there are no faults in the vehicle, ISG will be activated. If
any fault occurs then ISG will be deactivated. The figure 7
shows the presence of a starter relay countererror.Ifstarter
relay counter value exceeds the counter threshold, then
starter counter error will set. ISG Deactivation occurs and
this message is conveyed to the driver via Inhibition or fault
display signal, which is transmitted to the display panel via
CAN.
Fig-7: Simulation result
7. CONCLUSION
The design of deactivation logic is completely met by taking
into consideration of all possible fault or error cases with
respect to ISG system. Different categories of faults were
analyzed. Some of which are engine relevant, driver
detection, hardware dependent faults and transmission
relevant. If any fault occurs then ISG will be deactivated and
this message is conveyed to the driver via inhibition or fault
display signal, which is transmitted to the display via CAN.
The software developed in embedded C was flashed into the
ECU via the CAN bus and was simulated intheLABCARtoget
the results.
In this paper we are implemented a deactivation logic in a
start-stop featured vehicle. The deactivation logic is
designed using ASCET tool and simulated the through
LABCAR, if any fault occurred in the vehicle then ISG will be
deactivated and displayed to driver through LED.

Brake system - This provides the brake status. There are three different states, which are considered: brake pressing, brake pressed and brake releasing. While performing analysis for determining the set of all system faults that affect ISG in order to determine what are the possible error cases that lead to ISG deactivation, the inputs from all the above-mentioned systems have to be considered. 3. System Design and Implementation for ISG The requirement for starting or stopping of the engine is generated depending on different conditions that we consider. Primarily, a start / stop request has to be generated. Once there is a request, the coordinator checks whether all other systems affected canreleasethegenerated request in order to go for a start / stop order. Requests and releases might be driver related, system relatedor relatedto other parameters. Fig-2: State diagram of ISG The Figure 2 shows the state machine within the start – stop coordinator. It consists of 5 states, namely: 1. Init: The initialization state represents thatISGisinactive. This state is indicative of the presence of system faults (leading to state machine reset) or ignition not being ON or ISG being deactivated by the driver. 2. Standby: In this state, the coordinator expects to receive an ISG Start order or waits for the driver to crank the engine (in case first start has not happened). 3. Start (Transient): It is the equivalentofcrankingphase of the engine. The coordinator monitors for engine cranking failures as well. 4. Operation: The combustion engine is operational andthe ISG Coordinator waits for a stop order to stop the engine when needed. 5. Stop (Transient): It reflects the engine-stopping phase. The coordinator essentially looks for change of mind triggers. Change of mind means that there is a sudden Start request during engine stopping phase. The engine cannot start suddenly during every stopping phase.Forthis,there is change of mind threshold speed figure3showsthechangeof mind when engine speed is greater than threshold speed. If there is a start request before the engine speed goes below the threshold, then it immediately switches to start phase. Figure 4 shows the change of mind when engine speed is less than threshold speed Fig-3: Change of mind when Engine Speed > Threshold However, if it is below threshold speed, then the engine first completes the stop (Reaches zero rpm) and then starts from there. Fig-4: Change of mind when Engine Speed < Threshold 4. DEACTIVATION LOGIC For designing robust deactivation logic for the ISG system, it is necessary to identify all thepossibleerrorcases,bothfrom a system perspective as well asISGfunctionalityperspective.
