Abstract
Electronic throttle control design is an important part of Automated Vehicle Control System (AVCS). In this paper we design an adaptive throttle control scheme for vehicle following under constant time headway spacing policy. The scheme maintains a steady state inter-vehicle spacing decided by a desired time headway set by the driver. The vehicle is assumed to be equipped with sensors which can detect relative distance, relative speed and absolute vehicle speed. The design is based on a simplified linear model but is simulated with the full order nonlinear model and tested on an actual vehicle. The simulated and tested results are included in this paper.
