Abstract Due to the increasing complexity of Automated Driving Systems (ADS) in combination with the multitude of possible traffic scenarios, the question arises how the functionality of ADS should be verified in an early development phase. Since there is currently no comprehensive industrially feasible solution published, this paper addresses the verification of ADS by means of Model in the Loop (MiL) simulations in advance of real prototype testing. The vehicle dynamic behavior is represented by high fidelity multi-body simulation complete vehicle models and the considered driving functions are integrated into the simulation framework via standardized interfaces and are assessed by specific safety and comfort Key Performance Indicators.
