Abstract:
A reference model based control approach for automotive longitudinal control is proposed in this study. The reference model is nonlinear and provides dynamic solutions consistent with safety constraints and comfort specifications. Moreover, a design procedure of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and stop-and-go control systems is provided which deals with the electric car following various scenarios in urban environment. Since many vehicle/road interaction factors (such as road slope, aerodynamic forces) and actuator dynamics are very poorly known, a robust fuzzy logic based control strategy is further proposed in this study. A set of simulation results showing the suitability of the proposed technique for various demanding scenarios is also included in this study.

Key words:  Adaptive cruise control, electric car technology, longitudinal control, stop-and-go control, stop and go maneuvers , ,
