Cooperative control, as a key technology in intelligent transportation systems, can effectively alleviate traffic congestion, reduce fuel consumption, decrease vehicle emissions, and improve driving comfort and safety.

[0003] Existing technologies suffer from at least the following technical problems: Manually driven vehicles rely heavily on the driver's habits, while autonomous vehicles are more constrained by controllers, resulting in significant differences in driving behavior between the two. Especially when the vehicle in front is autonomous, the driver may increase their following distance due to psychological factors, leading to traffic instability and even accidents. Furthermore, the nonlinear mechanisms of the vehicle system itself and the complex nonlinear relationship between the vehicle and its environment make it difficult to accurately establish a hybrid driving cooperative control system.

[0019] , , Let be the driving distance between the i-th vehicle (i≥2) and the vehicle in front. For the desired driving distance, Let i be the driving speed of the i-th vehicle. The desired driving speed of the vehicle (preset value, such as 20km / h).

[0029] To address communication issues such as communication interruptions that can easily occur when vehicles are far apart, a bidirectional information flow topology is adopted. Vehicles only receive and transmit information from adjacent vehicles. This eliminates the need for all vehicles to transmit information, reducing communication costs and improving the reliability of information transmission. Taking a single-lane hybrid vehicle cooperative control system as an example, the information flow topology is shown in the attached diagram. Dark-colored vehicles represent manually driven vehicles, while light-colored vehicles represent autonomous vehicles. In the bidirectional information flow topology, autonomous vehicles obtain local state information from adjacent vehicles through local network communication.

Set to 3 meters. i The value is 0.5, β is 5, p is 3, and q is 2. and The uncertain parameters are due to different drivers of the manually driven vehicle, i=1,3,4. Vmax =20km / h, h s =1 meter and h g =5 meters. Taking the third manually driven vehicle as an example, ,but .

[0033] Taking the fifth vehicle as an example, while driving, it acquires its own local state and the states of neighboring vehicles. Under the control of the vehicle controller, it smoothly maintains the desired distance from the vehicle in front. Specifically, it controls the speed of its own vehicle (the autonomous vehicle) based on the driving state of the vehicle in front (the manually driven vehicle) to maintain the desired driving distance. This is achieved through the controller. Make and Approaching zero. When and As the speed approaches zero, the convoys maintain the desired speed and geometric formation.
