Requirement Identification for Traffic Simulations in Driving Simulators

Abstract

This paper addresses the challenge of ensuring realistic traffic conditions by proposing a methodology that systematically identifies traffic simulation requirements. Using a structured approach based on sub-goals in each study phase, specific technical needs are derived for microscopic levels, agent models, and visual representation. The methodology aims to maintain a high degree of fidelity, enhancing both the validity of experimental outcomes and participant engagement. By providing a clear link between study objectives and traffic simulation design, this approach supports robust automotive development and testing.
