Offline analysis of sensor can protocol logs without can/vector tool usage

Abstract

This paper presents Offline Sensor CAN protocol Log file Analysis. Windows platform C language Compiler tool is selected to replace the conventional Analysis using Vector CANoe tool because of its advantages in terms of simplicity, flexibility, license-free hardware, less execution time and portability. In the proposed method, a C script was developed to tokenize the desired CAN elements into array of structures for various Analysis using any C compiler windows platform tool. According to the Analysis, the CAN elements of interest are brought and Analysis is performed. An optimized C script developed gives the expected result similar to results obtained in Vector CANoe using CAPL script. Performance can be analyzed in terms of execution time, and cross checking the Analysis results obtained is done using both CAPL script and C script. The purpose of this optimized technique is to ensure Test Analysis and can be made possible even without costly Vector hardware license and to obtain Test results offline with less processing time.
