Consistent Control of Vehicle Platoon Event Triggering with Communication Delay
To solve the transmission delay and information redundancy and resource waste caused by continuous information ex-change between vehicles during the communication process,a vehicle platoon consistency strategy based on event triggering mecha-nism is proposed to ensure the stable operation of the vehicle platoon.To this end,considering the car-following interactions and com-munication delay between vehicles,a third-order heterogeneous vehicle platoon dynamics model is constructed,and a consistent vehi-cle platoon controller method based on event triggering is proposed.On this basis,the Lyapunov stability theory and algebraic graph theory are used to analyze the stability of the vehicle platoon,and obtain the event triggering conditions and upper bounds of commu-nication delay that make the vehicle platoon stable.Simulation experiments are conducted on the MATLAB platform to verify the ef-fectiveness of the proposed vehicle platoon control method.
