OTA Updates
Update Package Delivery
Delivered via OTA (cellular/Wi-Fi) or diagnostic tools (DoIP, CAN).
Typically, it includes firmware, calibration data, or application software.
Staging the Update
Stored in a shadow memory or secondary partition.
Validated for integrity and authenticity before activation.
Activation Phase
On the next reboot or in a safe state (e.g., ignition off), the ECU switches to the new software image.
A bootloader or update manager handles the transition.
