String Stability Properties of Ahs Longitudinal Vehicle Controllers
نویسندگان
چکیده
A recently proposed strategy for evaluating the string stability properties of longitudinal vehicle controllers used in Automated Highway Systems (AHS) is to consider the platoon as a mass-spring-damper system. This simpliied analysis framework results in linear closed-loop systems, yielding transfer functions which characterize the spacing error response of the platoon. These transfer functions are then used to compare the string stability properties of a variety of longitudinal vehicle controllers, sometimes with unexpected results.

A Simplified Framework for String Stability
One of the most important issues in longitudinal control of vehicles in automated highway systems (AHS) is string stability, that is, the attenuation of spacing errors as they propagate upstream the platoon. In this paper we use a mass-spring-damper system as a simpliied framework for string stability analysis and study the properties of several longitudinal control schemes which have been prop...
متن کاملInternal 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 کاملA new virtual leader-following consensus protocol to internal and string stability analysis of longitudinal platoon of vehicles with generic network topology under communication and parasitic delays
In this paper, a new virtual leader following consensus protocol is introduced to perform the internal and string stability analysis of longitudinal platoon of vehicles under generic network topology. In all previous studies on multi-agent systems with generic network topology, the control parameters are strictly dependent on eigenvalues of network matrices (adjacency or Laplacian). Since some ...

In order to improve the safety and longitudinal stability of a vehicle equipped with standard ABS system, this paper, analyzes the basic principles of vehicles stability and proposes a control strategy based on fuzzy adaptive control which will adjust PID gain parameters, using genetic algorithm. A linear three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) vehicle model was set up in Simulink and the stability test ...
متن کاملEffects of Communication Delay on String Stability in Vehicle Platoons
The throughput of vehicles on highways can be greatly increased by forming vehicle platoons with small inter-vehicle spacings. The control law that maintains stable operation of a platoon is dependent on the lead and preceding vehicle’s position, velocity and acceleration profiles. These profiles guarantee string stability of a platoon and are transmitted via wireless communication networks. Th...
