Abstract
In one embodiment, method for determining capability boundary of a safety redundancy of an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) includes obtaining a sensor layout associated with the ADV representing a system having a plurality of sensors mounted on a plurality of locations of the ADV. A zone failure risk of one or more sensors within the predetermined zones is estimated based on statistical operational data of the one or more sensors for each of the plurality of predetermined zones. An overall failure risk of the sensors is determined based on the zone failure risks of the predetermined zones based on relative locations of the sensors across the predetermined zones. A dynamic risk adjustment is determined based on the overall failure risk of the sensors, the dynamic risk adjustment representing a reliability of a sensor system associated with the ADV for estimating a safety of autonomous driving of the ADV.
