REGULATION LAYER CONTROLLER DESIGN FOR AUTOMATED HIGHWAY SYSTEMS

In this paper, emphasis is on the design of longitudinal control laws for the regulation layer operation of a four-layer hierarchical control architecture for a fully automated highway system (AHS). Longitudinal control laws are proposed for a vehicle to execute different maneuvers requested from its planning layer. The maneuvers include leader tracking target speed, platoon merge, platoon split lane change, and follower spacing control.
