Abstract

This paper describes a platoon driving control system on an automated highway system (AHS). The system implemented on a test vehicle is described first, followed by a description of a vehicle control method based on the use of throttle and brake actuators. Experimental and simulation results obtained with this method are presented. A control method is then described that uses inter-vehicle communication to maintain a constant headway. The results of simulations and driving tests conducted with three vehicles are presented to illustrate that the use of inter-vehicle communication is highly effective in improving headway control performance.
