Vision-Based Vehicle Trajectory Following with Constant Time Delay
نویسندگان
چکیده
A convoy problem is formulated and solved for two four-wheeled vehicles. The task is for the second vehicle to follow the leader’s trajectory with a constant time delay. This delayed trajectory can be viewed as the trajectory of a delayed leader. This novel constant-time-delay concept allows for the estimation of the delayed leader’s speed and heading using the vehicle kinematics. Decoupled longitudinal and lateral controllers are developed based on the constant-time-delay approach. The lateral controller includes a look-ahead feature to compensate for steering delays. Successful field trials were conducted with full-sized military vehicles on a 1.3-kilometre test track. The tracking errors from differential global positioning system (DGPS) ground truth covering 13 kilometres are presented.

Internal and string stability analyses of longitudinal platoon of vehicles with communication delay and actuator lag under constant spacing policy
This paper studies the longitudinal control of a group of vehicles following a lead vehicle. A neighbor based upper level controller is proposed by considering communication delay and actuator lag. Constant spacing policy is used between successive vehicles. Two different approaches based on Lyapunov-Razumikhin and Lyapuniv-Krassovski theorems are presented to stability analysis...
متن کاملDelay Compensation on Fuzzy Trajectory Tracking Control of Omni-Directional Mobile Robots
This paper presents a delay compensator fuzzy control for trajectory tracking of omni-directional mobile robots. Fuzzy logic control (FLC) of the robots is a suitable strategy for dealing with model uncertainties, nonlinearities and disturbances. On the other hand, in many robotic applications such as mobile robots, delay phenomenon is able to substantially deteriorate the behavior of system's...
متن کاملIdentifying and Analyzing Stop and Go Traffic based on Asymmetric Theory of Driving Behavior in Acceleration and Deceleration
Stop and go traffic that leads to oscillate traffic flow frequently is observed on congestion flow. Unexpected reasons such as lane – changing maneuvers, lower speeds of leader vehicle and moving bottleneck cause stop and go traffic and amplifying delay and environment impacts. Stop and go traffic exactly can’t be modeled by traffic models, and also car following models based on kinematic flow ...
متن کاملMANFIS Based Modeling and Prediction of the Driver-Vehicle Unit Behavior in Overtaking Scenarios
Overtaking a slow lead vehicle is a complex maneuver because of the variety of overtaking conditions and driver behavior. In this study, two novel prediction models for overtaking behavior are proposed. These models are derived based on multi-input multi-output adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (MANFIS). They are validated at microscopic level and are able to simulate and predict the fut...
متن کاملAutonomous Ship-board Landing using Monocular Vision
This paper describes a system for landing a vertical take-off and landing vehicle on a moving deck using a monocular vision system and inertial measurement unit. Data from the vision system and IMU are used to compute an estimate of relative deck position, and a touchdown trajectory generator based on tau-guidance is used to compute a path to landing. A trajectory-following controller follows t...
