  • Method for determining a speed to be reached for a first vehicle preceded by a second vehicle, in particular for an autonomous vehicle
    Patent number: 11345355
    Abstract: The present invention is a method for determining an optimal speed of a first vehicle preceded by a second vehicle. Position, speed and acceleration of the second vehicle are measured in order to determine a trajectory thereof, and a dynamic model of the first vehicle is constructed. The optimal speed is then determined by minimizing the energy consumption of the vehicle by use of the dynamic model by minimization being constrained by the trajectory of the second vehicle.

  • METHOD FOR DETERMINING A SPEED TO BE REACHED FOR A FIRST VEHICLE PRECEDED BY A SECOND VEHICLE, IN PARTICULAR FOR AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20190071096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining an optimal speed to be reached for a first vehicle preceded by a second vehicle. For this method, the position, the speed and the acceleration of the second vehicle are measured (MES) in order to determine the trajectory thereof (POS), and a dynamic model (MOD) of the first vehicle is constructed. The speed to be reached (VIT) is then determined by minimizing (MIN) the energy consumption of the vehicle by means of the dynamic model (MOD), the minimization being constrained by the trajectory (POS) of the second vehicle.
