CONTROL ISSUES IN AUTOMATED HIGHWAY SYSTEMS

This article describes vehicle control issues that must be faced in designing a fully automated highway system (AHS). In particular requirements for a control system architecture as well as issues of lateral and longitudinal platoon control are addressed. The approach described is based on five years of research as part of the California PATH program.
