Research on Distance Control Considering the Intention of the Vehicle Ahead
During the adaptive cruise of vehicles,the operational intention of the vehicle ahead significantly impacts the following vehicle.To address the issue of the following vehicle's distance being easily influenced by the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle ahead,a safety distance strategy considering the driver's intent of the vehicle ahead has been designed.This strategy consists of three parts:intent recognition layer,following decision layer,and motion control layer.The intent recognition layer collects pedal signals and uses a T-S fuzzy neural network to identify acceleration and deceleration intentions;the following decision layer receives the lead vehicle's driving intent in real-time through a connected environment and calculates the desired safe distance and expected acceleration;the motion control layer establishes an inverse longitudinal dynamics model of the vehicle,converting the expected acceleration into throttle pedal opening and brake cylinder pressure to achieve vehicle following control.Simulation results under multiple conditions indicate that the distance strategy considering the intent of the vehicle ahead achieves stable distance following of the following vehicle under different driving intentions of the vehicle ahead.
