Concept for the Generation of Reference Variables and Model-Based Predictive Control for the Lateral Guidance of Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platoons
Keywords: vehicle guidance, model-based predictive control, reference variables
Heavy-duty vehicle platoons are a possible future form of organisation for goods traffic. Only the leading vehicle is manually driven while all following vehicles are automatically controlled in longitudinal and lateral direction. This paper presents a concept for the generation of reference variables as well as for a model-based predictive control (MPC) to be used for the lateral control within the path tracking. The control method is investigated also considering parameter variations in simulations and the results are presented.
