Review of Control Theory Models for Directional and Speed Control
This paper presented a model for driver directional and speed control, and illustrated its applications. These are based on models in the classic literature and manual control principles. Data have been presented for typical values of the model parameters and to show how these parameters vary depending on the task, the experimental venue and across driver subjects. The quasilinear models described in this paper are best suited to regulation tasks where the driver is compensating and minimizing errors on straight and gradually curving roads at an approximately constant speed, and these conditions represent a large percentage of driving. Other models that are available for other driving tasks such as rapid maneuvers, obstacle avoidance, near limit and/or braking maneuvers, etc., are beyond the scope of this paper.
