RUN-OFF-ROAD COLLISION AVOIDANCE USING IVHS COUNTERMEASURES TASK 6 SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT, COMPUTER SIMULATION STUDIES OF COUNTERMEASURE SYSTEM EFFECTIVENESS

In this report, performance guidelines for the design and development of two classes of road departure warning systems. The systems are Lane Drift Warning Systems (LDWS) and Curve Speed Warning Systems (CSWS). The LDWS warns in the event of an unintentional drift out of the travel lane. The CSWS warns if the vehicle is approaching a curve too quickly for current conditions. System performance is addressed for scanning requirements, warning algorithm requirements, driver interface requirements, test procedures, and estimation of associated benefits. The intent of the guidelines are that they be used by manufacturers and developers as a tool for: 1) standardizing system requirements; 2) standardizing driver interface and control; and, 3) standardizing test procedures for verifying proper system operation.
