J3251_202308 Cooperative Driving Automation (CDA) Feature: Perception Status Sharing for Occluded Pedestrian Collision Avoidance

Although still some years from being realized as a commercial product, automated driving system (ADS)-operated vehicles are expected to eventually become a common participant in road traffic. To help prepare for such a future, this document describes a cooperative driving automation (CDA) Feature and test procedure. The focus of the document is on producing a proof-of-concept-level perception-sharing CDA Feature and associated test procedures suitable for testing in both distributed virtual testing environments, as well as on test tracks, at the proof-of-concept level. (Note: This test procedure may also be suitable for testing on-road.)
