Q2. What is the effect of the double-lane-change maneuver?
At the end of the double-lane-change maneuver, the driver’s torque rapidly decreases to zero and the signal , i.e., the output of the designed filter , goes to zero trough a smooth transient; during such a transient, the lane-keeping controller drives the vehicle to the centerline of the lane through the tracking of the signal and, at the end of the transient, the lane-keeping task is resumed smoothly [specification (S4)].
Q3. How can a lane change be handled?
The transition from one lane to the next can be handled by properly resetting the initial condition of controller with respect to the new measurement reference system.
Q4. What is the lateral dynamics of the vehicle?
During the driver’s maneuver, the vehicle lateral dynamics is controlled by the driver himself through the vehicle steering system.
Q5. What is the definition of the term driver’s steering?
In the paper, the terms driver’s steering or driver’s maneuver mean any intervention of the driver on the vehicle steering system in order to obtain a desired behavior of the vehicle (for example, lane change for passing purposes or obstacle avoidance) and, in general, when it is desired to override the automatic lane-keeping and obtain complete control of the vehicle lateral dynamics.
Q6. What is the effect of the uncertainty on the closed-loop performance?
The obtained transfer function, called , is given by(10)Finally, the effect of the uncertainty on the closed-loop performance can be quantified computing the difference betweenand , called , as(11)Thus, (11) shows that the effects of the modeling error are attenuated by the sensitivity function of the feedback loop.
Q7. What is the effect of the change in the measurement reference system?
Since the vision system is subject to a change in the measurement reference system during a lane change (see Section IV-D), the acquired signals and should show a discontinuity.
Q8. What is the simplest way to evaluate the performance of the proposed system?
As far as robust performance is concerned, the authors are interested in evaluating the effect of the modeling error on the main task of the proposed approach, expressed by (2), which is equivalent to the condition .
Q9. What is the stability of the vehicle?
C. Implementation Issues: Stability ofAs can be seen from Fig. 4, is a cascade filter, thus it must enjoy the stability property.
Q10. What is the drawback of the lane change maneuver?
The only resulting drawback (which indeed might not be considered as such) is the presence of an “opposing” torque “felt” on the steer by the driver, which actually can be considered as a simulation of the load due to the steering system.
