TLDR
In this paper, an automated intelligent vehicle/highway system (IVHS) is described, and a four-layer hierarchical control architecture is proposed to decompose this problem into more manageable units.Abstract:
Key features of one automated intelligent vehicle/highway system (IVHS) are outlined, it is shown how core driver decisions are improved, a basic IVHS control system architecture is proposed, and a design of some control subsystems is offered. Some experimental work is summarized. A system that promises a threefold increase in capacity is outlined, and a four-layer hierarchical control architecture that decomposes this problem into more manageable units is proposed. >read more

Preview Control for Vehicle Lateral Guidance in Highway Automation
Huei Peng,Masayoshi Tomizuka +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuous time deterministic optimal preview control algorithm is applied to the lateral guidance of a vehicle for an automated highway, where the front wheel steering angle of the vehicle is controlled so that the vehicle follows the center for a lane with small tracking error and maintains good ride quality simultaneously.
