本文件描述了通过虚拟仿真评估车辆集成主动安全技术安全性能的前瞻性方法的最新进展。该文件描述了车辆集成技术的前瞻性评估如何预测先进的车辆安全技术将如何在实际交通中的道路上发挥作用。重点是对整个技术进行评估，而不是对技术的单个组件（例如传感器）进行评估。 所描述的评估方法仅限于“车辆集成”技术，并且不考虑在户外运行的技术。虚拟仿真方法本身并不局限于某一车型。本文件中讨论的评估方法侧重于事故避免和技术对减轻后果的贡献。 该方法并未明确说明在碰撞中或碰撞后阶段起作用的安全技术，尽管碰撞避免技术的预期评估结果可被视为确定碰撞整体后果的重要输入。 该方法旨在通过虚拟仿真为碰撞前技术的安全性能评估研究提供总体参考。该方法可应用于技术开发的所有阶段以及市场引入后的评估中，其中广泛的利益相关者（制造商、保险公司、政府组织、消费者评级组织）可以应用该方法。

This document describes the state-of-the-art of prospective methods for assessing the safety performance of vehicle-integrated active safety technologies by virtual simulation. The document describes how prospective assessment of vehicle-integrated technologies provides a prediction on how advanced vehicle safety technology will perform on the roads in real traffic. The focus is on the assessment of the technology as whole and not of single components of the technology (e.g. sensors). The described assessment approach is limited to “vehicle-integrated” technology and does not consider technologies operating off-board. The virtual simulation method per se is not limited to a certain vehicle type. The assessment approach discussed in this document focuses accident avoidance and the technology’s contribution to the mitigation of the consequences. Safety technologies that act in the in-crash or the post-crash phase are not explicitly addressed by the method, although the output from prospective assessments of crash avoidance technologies can be considered as an important input to determine the overall consequences of a crash. The method is intended as an overall reference for safety performance assessment studies of pre-crash technologies by virtual simulation. The method can be applied at all stages of technology development and in assessment after the market introduction, in which a wide range of stakeholders (manufactures, insurer, governmental organisation, consumer rating organisation) could apply the method.
