Abstract

AbstractThis article considers a path tracking control problem for autonomous vehicles constrained to maintain a safe distance from the next vehicle in the lane. The control design problem is solved by considering a mathematical model of the vehicle that jointly describes the lateral and longitudinal dynamics. Specifically, the optimal controller is designed aimed at minimizing the orientation and position tracking errors with respect to a given reference path. Moreover, the controller is able to ensure that the vehicle can both follow a speed profile and automatically adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a proper distance from the next vehicle. The lateral dynamic is regulated by a 2‐DOF feedforward/feedback controller, where the feedforward law is implemented by exploiting an inverse kinematic model of the vehicle. On the other side, the feedback action, along with the action of the controller in charge to regulate the longitudinal dynamics, is the optimal gain‐scheduling state‐feedback controller. In particular, a parameter‐dependent quadratic Lyapunov function approach is used to reduce the conservativeness of the solution and a suitable convex LMI optimization problem is formulated for the synthesis. The vehicle is described by a seven‐degrees‐of‐freedom (7DOF) full‐car model, with the tire‐generated forces described by the classical Pacejka's Magic Formula. In order to assess the performance of the proposed control strategy, simulations have been undertaken in Matlab/Simulink by considering an autonomous vehicle driving into an urban scenario.
