Summary

Vector Informatik has introduced the CANoe Emulation Package EV, which replays recorded charging sessions to emulate charging station behavior for EV charging communication and interoperability testing. The package supports SIL, HIL and full-vehicle environments, helping engineers reproduce edge cases and field issues without repeated access to physical charging stations.

Vector Informatik has introduced the CANoe Emulation Package EV, which uses recorded charging sessions to recreate charging station behavior in the lab for EV charging communication and interoperability testing.

Key communication parameters are extracted from the recordings and used to emulate the observed charging station behavior. The package enables engineers to reproduce and validate real-world scenarios, including edge cases, field issues and rare or difficult-to-reproduce issues, without repeatedly accessing physical charging stations. Vector says the approach simplifies interoperability and regression testing, reduces the need for repeated field testing and can cut testing time and costs.

The package takes recorded trace files, such as BLF or PCAP files, as input, and emulates charging station behavior according to DIN 70121 and ISO 15118-2, reproducing communication across all relevant transport and application layers. It is intended for software-in-the-loop (SIL), hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and full-vehicle test environments. The emulation is fully parameter-driven and is designed to deliver repeatable results for automated testing and CI/CD workflows.

CCS conformance testing is not part of the Emulation Package EV; Vector offers it separately in the CANoe Test Package EV.
