A METHOD FOR DESIGN AND SPECIFICATION OF LONGITUDINAL CONTROLLERS FOR VEHICLE AUTOMATION

Datta N. Godbole, Raja Sengupta

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Within the context of advanced vehicle control systems, the authors present a general methodology for the design and evaluation of vehicle safety systems. The safety of a vehicle automation system is characterized by the operating region and capabilities of the controller, and the disturbance generating capabilities of the traffic and roadway. The authors illustrate the methodology with reference to a vehicle following scenario. Different information structures are compared by analyzing their effect on safety and system capacity
