Quasi-Sliding Mode Control for Impulsive Delayed Vehicle Longitudinal Following System with Bounded and Varying Parameters

Abstract

In the real automated highway system, various factors to vehicles which are moving make the velocity of vehicles change suddenly. In this paper, assuming that the mass of vehicles, the drag coefficient and the resistance of the ground were uncertain, the controller for a class of time-varying delayed look-ahead vehicle longitudinal following system with impulsive effect was designed by using the idea of quasi-sliding mode control. An example is given at last to test the controller proposed in this paper.
