Platoon driving control system and method of vehicle

Abstract

The invention provides a platoon driving control system and method of a vehicle. The platoon driving control system of a vehicle includes a detector configured to detect an obstacle positioned in a front according to a driving direction of a vehicle included in a platoon; a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor and storing an algorithm that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to: determine a braking strategy of the vehicle included in the platoon based on a driving speed of the platoon, and control a driving of the platoon based on the obstacle detected by the detector and the braking strategy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to platoon driving control systems of vehicles and methods thereof, and more particularly, to autonomous emergency braking control of platoon driving vehicles. Background technique [0002] In order to improve the safety and convenience of users who use vehicles, the development of technologies incorporating various sensors and electronic devices into vehicles is accelerating. In particular, systems that provide various functions (eg, smart cruise control, lane keeping assist) developed for user's driving convenience have been mounted on vehicles. Therefore, so-called autonomous driving, in which a vehicle runs on a road by itself considering an external environment without a driver's manipulation, has been gradually developed. [0003] Fleet driving, which is a kind of autonomous driving, means that a plurality of vehicles grouped into a group travel autonomously in consideration of external environments, respectively, ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in traditional platoon driving, there is no specific application for the technology of Forward Collision Avoidance (FCA) and Autonomous Emergency Brake (AEB) control, in which detection sensors are used to identify A vehicle in front that warns the driver when a collision with the preceding vehicle is expected and automatically applies the brakes to avoid a collision or reduce damage

[0007] In addition, there is a problem that the front collision avoidance system according to the conventional technology is tuned on a flat road without taking into account the phenomenon that the braking performance changes on a sloped road
