Automated vehicles need to operate safely in a wide range of environments and hazards. The complex systems that make up an automated vehicle must also ensure safety in the event of system failures. This paper proposes an approach and architectural design for achieving maximum functionality in the case of system failures. The Operational Design Domain (ODD) defines the domain over which the automated vehicle can operate safely. We propose modifying a runtime representation of the ODD based on current system capabilities. This enables the system to react with context-appropriate responses depending on the remaining degraded functionality. In addition to proposing an architectural design, we have implemented the approach to prove its viability. The proof of concept has shown promising directions for future work and moved our automated vehicle research platform closer to achieving level 4 automation.
