Longitudinal Control for Cruise Control Features in Vehicle Automation
Abstract
This research focuses on longitudinal control methods implemented in Cruise Control (CC) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) systems, as well as the mechanism for switching between these two modes. Two primary longitudinal control methods are examined: Constant Space Headway Control, which maintains a constant distance between vehicles, and Constant Time Headway Control, which maintains a constant time gap between vehicles.
The noteworthy feature of this research focuses on incorporating a switching mechanism between Cruise Control and Adaptive Cruise Control through the utilization of the virtual target method.
