  • Patent number: 11691623
    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling a vehicle are described. A processor of a longitudinal planning system determines a state of the vehicle. The processor determines a state of a leader vehicle. The processor, based on the determined state of the vehicle and the determined state of the leader vehicle, determines a critical distance for the vehicle. The processor compares a distance between the vehicle and the leader vehicle with the critical distance. The processor, based on the comparison, determines whether the vehicle is too close to or too far from the leader vehicle. The processor, based on the determination, applies one or more of overshoot constraints, undershoot constraints, and critical constraints. After applying the one or more of overshoot constraints, undershoot constraints, and critical constraints, the processor determines a target acceleration for the vehicle. The processor controls the vehicle to track the target acceleration for the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11014569
    Abstract: Methods and systems for autonomously steering a moving vehicle are disclosed. A processor determines a longitudinal velocity, a longitudinal acceleration, a lateral acceleration, and a yaw rate of the vehicle. The processor estimates, based on the longitudinal velocity, lateral acceleration, and yaw rate of the vehicle, a change in lateral velocity over time. The processor estimates, based on the change in the lateral velocity over time, the yaw rate, a distance between the front axle of the vehicle and a center of gravity of the vehicle, and a distance between the rear axle of the vehicle and the center of gravity of the vehicle, a lateral front velocity of the vehicle and a lateral rear velocity of the vehicle. Using calculations, a state estimation model for the vehicle is updated by the processor using a lateral acceleration bias. The updated state estimation model is used to autonomously steer the vehicle.
