Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a speed in an excess speed enforcement section are provided. The method includes determining one of a target speed, a lower limit speed, and a speed limit as a final target speed using a relationship between a target speed, a lower limit speed, and a speed limit. A required acceleration is calculated based on the final target speed and the vehicle speed and the vehicle speed is adjusted using the required acceleration.

Abstract: The speed of a vehicle is automatically controlled in a speed bump area located in the vicinity of a speed bump. Information about a speed bump is received from a navigation device, and a distance between the vehicle and the speed bump is calculated. If the calculated is less than a preset reference distance, it is determined that the vehicle is entering or has entered an area of the speed bump. Upon determining that the vehicle is in the speed bump area, a speed difference between a safe speed bump crossing speed and a current speed of the vehicle is computed, a required acceleration value is calculated based on the calculated distance to the speed bump and the speed difference, and the speed of the vehicle is controlled so that the vehicle decelerates or is accelerates in accordance with the required acceleration value.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a speed on a curved road in a smart cruise control system configured to obtain road coordinate information of a front portion of a vehicle from a navigation system based on a current location of the vehicle, calculate a curvature value of the curved road based on the road coordinate information, calculate a speed corresponding to the curvature value, and control a speed setting of the vehicle based on the speed corresponding to the curvature value when approaching the curved road.

Abstract: Disclosed is a control method for use in a system for controlling a distance between vehicles. The method comprises a) controlling, in response to the leading vehicle's deceleration, deceleration of the control vehicle; b) controlling stop speed of the control vehicle so that the control vehicle approaches the leading vehicle at a constant speed without stopping; c) controlling the control vehicle to stop smoothly exactly at a position spaced from the leading vehicle by a predetermined stop distance; and d) controlling the start of the control vehicle after determining whether the leading vehicle has started or moved forward.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a forward vehicle sensing system for a vehicle. The system includes a sensor and a control unit. The sensor monitors conditions of a road ahead of the vehicle. The control unit detects stationary objects placed on edges of the road, calculates an imaginary line from the consecutive stationary objects, and recognize a prior transverse position of a forward vehicle as a current transverse position of the forward vehicle when determining that an absolute value of a transverse position of the forward vehicle detected on the road is greater than an absolute value of a transverse position of the imaginary line. Therefore, the system of the present invention can prevent the forward vehicle from being incorrectly sensed in such a way as to determine the imaginary line from the stationary objects and compare the transverse position of the forward vehicle to that of the imaginary line.
