Optimized Active Collision Avoidance Algorithm of Intelligent Vehicles

Abstract

This research introduces an innovative strategy to impede and lessen lateral and rear-end vehicular collisions by consolidating braking systems with active emergency steering controls. This study puts forward a T-type active emergency steering method, designed to circumvent both lateral and rear-end collisions at vehicular intersections. To secure vehicular stability and condense the time required for steering during the T-type active emergency process, this research formulates a nonlinear dynamic model for the vehicle, in addition to a nonlinear tire model. This study also engages in a thorough analysis of the constraints linked to the initial and terminal states of the steering process. The issue at hand is articulated as an optimization control problem with boundary value restrictions, which is subsequently resolved using the Radau pseudospectral method. Simulation results corroborate that the prompt commencement of the anti-collision strategy can effectively deter potential collisions. This pioneering approach shows considerable promise in augmenting the active safety of intelligent vehicles and bears meaningful implications for high-precision automotive collision evasion systems.
