Generic Model Predictive Control Framework for

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)

Controller design for autonomous and cooperative driving and impact assessment on traffic flow dynamics

2Challenge the future

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems

bull Support drivers in performing driving tasks in (partially)

automated vehicles

bull Autonomous systems eg Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

bull Rely solely on on-board sensors

bull No cooperation in the decision-making

bull Cooperative systems eg Cooperative ACC (CACC)

bull Exchange information via V2VV2I communication

bull Coordination and consensus in decision-making

3Challenge the future

Relevant for traffic management

ADAS may have far-reaching impacts on

bullIndividual driver behaviour car-following and lane-changing

consequently travel time safety and comfort

bullCollective traffic flow characteristics capacity stability

bullSustainability fuel consumption and emissions

It is important to design ADAS to improve collective traffic flow dynamics

4Challenge the future

A flexible design approach

bull Motivation many control approaches determine ACCC-ACC accelerations based on simple linear feedback control law

bull Approaches often miss certain desirable features such asbull Explicit optimisationbull Multiple objectivesbull Anticipation on (future) driving contextbull Integration with current traffic management architecture

(V2I)

bull Goal to develop a generic multi-objective control approach based on MPC (Model Predictive Control) while being fast and robust enough for real-time application
