Abstract

This paper investigates the problem about control of vehicle platoon with the ranged-limited sensors. A new model predictive control (MPC) method is proposed for this problem. Considering the time delay (e.g., the fueling or the barking delay) and the ranged-limited sensors, a time-delay predictive model is established to describe the spacing switching between vehicles changes. Then a family of controllers of vehicle platoon is presented with some free parameters. Giving a cost function, a finite horizon constrained optimal control problem is defined and solved to determine the optimal values of those parameters of the vehicle platoon controller at each sampling time. The validity and performance of the presented method is demonstrated by some classical road scenario.
