Abstract

Various applications for use of mass estimations of a vehicle, including to control operation of the vehicle, sharing the mass estimation with other vehicles and / or a Network Operations Center (NOC),organizing vehicles operating in a platoon and / or partially controlling the operation of one or more vehicles operating in a platoon based on the relative mass estimations between the platooning vehicles. When vehicles are operating in a platoon, the relative mass between a lead and a following vehicle may be used to scale torque and / or brake commands generated by the lead vehicle and sent to thefollowing vehicle.
