The wiring harness is often referred to as the central nervous system of a vehicle, responsible for ensuring seamless communication between electronic control units (ECUs), sensors, and actuators. As software-defined vehicle architectures become more advanced, physical layer designers face growing pressure to reduce weight, standardize designs, and ensure regulatory compliance—all while maintaining safety and functional integrity.
Achieving these objectives simultaneously is no easy task. Engineers must navigate increasingly complex wiring architectures, avoid overengineering, and streamline material usage without sacrificing performance. Traditional automotive engineering software often lacks the flexibility needed to integrate real-time insights, making it difficult to validate optimizations early in the design process.
By leveraging engineering intelligence solutions, physical layer designers can now:
