Adaptive Cruise Control Algorithm Design based on Human Drivers' Driving Pattern

摘要

A vehicle cruise control strategy based on human drivers driving characteristics has been investigated. Human drivers driving patterns have been investigated using vehicle driving test data obtained from 125 participants. The control algorithm has been designed to incorporate the driving characteristics of the human drivers and to achieve natural vehicle behavior of the controlled vehicle that would feel comfortable to the human driver. Vehicle following characteristics of the cruise controlled vehicle have been investigated using real-world vehicle driving test data and a validated simulation package.
