Abstract:

To address the problem of heterogeneity and time delay caused by mixed traffic, a heterogeneous cooperative event‐triggered control method with time delay for autonomous driving platoons was proposed. Firstly, a heterogeneous vehicle delay model taking into account mixed traffic was established. Secondly, the event‐triggered controller in different modes was designed based on PID(proportional?integral?derivative) control and model predictive control(MPC). Thirdly, under urban and emergency conditions, the proposed controller was simulated and analyzed. Finally, a real‐car experiment was conducted based on the Jetson Nano model car. The simulation and experiment results illustrated that the proposed event‐triggered control method strikes a better balance between control accuracy and calculation speed under different circumstances. In the emergency situations with communication delay, it can still maintain lower errors.
