Automatic Vehicle Control Developments in the PATH Program
نویسندگان
چکیده
The accomplishments to date on the development of automatic vehicle control (AVC) technology in the Program on Advanced Technology for the Highway (PATH) at the University of California, Berkeley, are summarized. The basic prqfiiples and assumptions underlying the PATH work are identified, ‘followed by explanations of the work on automating vehicle lateral (steering) and longitudinal (spacing and speed) control. For both lateral and longitudinal control, the modeling of plant dynamics is described first, followed by development of the additional subsystems needed (communications, reference/sensor systems) and the derivation of the control laws. Plans for testing on vehicles in both near and long term are then discussed.
