Book Vehicular Platoon System Design

Download or read book Vehicular Platoon System Design written by Hui Zhang and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-08-23 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicular Platoon System Design: Fundamentals and Robustness provides a comprehensive introduction to connected and automated vehicular platoon system design. Platoons decrease the distances between cars or trucks using electronic, and possibly mechanical, coupling. This capability allows many cars or trucks to accelerate or brake simultaneously. It also allows for a closer headway between vehicles by eliminating reacting distance needed for human reaction. The book considers the key issues of robustness and cybersecurity, with optimization-based model predictive control schemes applied to control vehicle platoon. In the controller design part, several practical problems, such as constraint handling, optimal control performance, robustness against disturbance, and resilience against cyberattacks are reviewed. In addition, the book provides detailed theoretical analysis of the stability of the platoon under different control schemes. Provides a comprehensive introduction to the state-of-the-art development of connected and automated vehicular platoon systems Covers the advanced, robust and stochastic model predictive control algorithm design methods for constraint handling and robustness improvement Introduces rigorous theoretical stability analysis from the robust tube-based distributedMPC (Model Predictive Control) and stochastic tube-based distributed MPC perspectives Offers various filter-based inter-vehicle attack detection methods and event-based resilient vehicle platoon control design methods

Book A Functional Co Design Towards Safe and Secure Vehicle Platooning

Download or read book A Functional Co Design Towards Safe and Secure Vehicle Platooning written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) or platooning recently becomes promising as vehicles can learn of nearby vehicles' intentions and dynamics through wireless vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication and advanced on-board sensing technologies. The complexity of automated ve-hicle platoon system opens doors to various malicious cyber attacks. Violation of cybersecurity often results in serious safety issues as been demonstrated in recent studies. However, safety and security in a vehicle platoon so far have been considered separately by different sets of experts. Consequently no existing solution solves both safety and security in a coherent way. In this paper, we show cyber attacks on an automated platoon system could have the most severe level of safety impact with large scale car crash and argue the importance of safety-security co-design for safety critical cyber physical systems (CPS). We propose a safety-security co-design engineering process to derive functional security requirements for a safe automated vehicle platoon system based on a deep comprehension on the interrelation of safety and security. To our best knowledge, we are the first to apply the safety-security co-design concept to a concrete application. Through this engineering process, we propose a general approach for designing a safe and secure platooning. Following the general approach, we come up with a new platoon control algorithm that takes into account both safety and security. Our defense mechanism implicitly defends against safety-related cyber-attacks and greatly shortens the safe distance required when the platoon is not protected.

Book Developing Vehicle Platoons and Predicting Their Impacts

Download or read book Developing Vehicle Platoons and Predicting Their Impacts written by Pavle Bujanovic and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Future Intelligent Transportation System strategies that use cooperative automation have the potential to greatly improve transportation network performance and infrastructure efficiency. One of these strategies, vehicle platooning, uses wireless communication to allow a group of vehicles to move as a single unit with small, constant, time headways. This raises the capacity of a highway and increases the stability of traffic flow. This dissertation first addresses the controller design for platooning, which is the algorithm used by platooning vehicles to control their speed trajectory. Second, it considers the capacity impact of platooning on highway basic segments by developing an analytical model geared towards equipping planners and engineers to plan for the future. For the controller design, a multi-vehicle look ahead feedforward-feedback control structure is proposed. This approach allows vehicles to be proactive about responding to downstream traffic. However, depending on the controller design, in certain situations, a multi-vehicle look ahead approach may not give enough attention to the immediately preceding vehicle which may be a safety concern. Thus, to increase safety, the proposed controller varies the attention given to downstream vehicles based upon the relative location of all downstream vehicles in the platoon. The controller is further updated to allow vehicles to focus on the first vehicle in the platoon, whenever safe, which is proven to maximize platoon stability. Through simulations and live experiments, the final controller design displays stable performance which is important to positively impact upstream traffic. For the impact of platooning on capacity of highway basic segments, an analytical model is proposed, which accounts for variables such as market penetration rate, to determine the average time headway which is directly related to capacity at saturation conditions. The model works by estimating the probability that a randomly chosen vehicle will be in a number of different following modes under which it will maintain a different time headway. Determining when to open dedicated lanes for platooning purposes is also part of the model. In addition, to allow for analysis in conjunction with the Highway Capacity Manual, methods that determine the passenger car equivalent of platooning enabled passenger cars are presented.

This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the design of a multi-criteria automated vehicle longitudinal control system as an enhancement of the adaptive cruise control system. It analyses the effects of various parameters on the average traffic speed and the traction force of the vehicles in mixed traffic from a macroscopic point of view, and also demonstrates why research and development in speed control and predictive cruise control is important. The book also summarises the main steps of the system’s robust control design, from the modelling to its synthesis, and discusses both the theoretical background and the practical computation method of the control invariant sets. The book presents the analysis and verification of the system both in a simulation environment and under real-world conditions. By including the systematic design of the predictive cruise control using road and traffic information, it shows how optimization criteria can lead to multiobjective solutions, and the advanced optimization and control design methods required. The book focuses on a particular method by which the unfavourable effect of the traffic flow consideration can be reduced. It also includes simulation examples in which the speed design is performed, while the analysis is carried out in simulation and visualization environments. This book is a valuable reference for researchers and control engineers working on traffic control, vehicle control and control theory. It is also of interest to students and academics as it provides an overview of the strong interaction between the traffic flow and an individual vehicle cruising from both a microscopic and a macroscopic point of view.

Book Multi Agent Systems

Download or read book Multi Agent Systems written by Xiang-Gui Guo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multi-Agent Systems: Platoon Control and Non-Fragile Quantized Consensus aims to present recent research results in designing platoon control and non-fragile quantized consensus for multi-agent systems. The main feature of this book is that distributed adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) algorithms are proposed to guarantee strong string stability based on modified constant time headway (MCTH) policy. The MCTH policy is used to remove the unrealistic assumption in the most existing literature that initial spacing, velocity and acceleration errors are zero. This monograph investigates the platoon control issue by combining SMC technique with neural network and fuzzy logic system approximation methods.
