合流路での車列間に入るための車速制御方法

抄録

A method of controlling the acceleration required for merging between the vehicles on a main road was investigated. The vehicles on the main road usually keep speed near junctions. In order to prevent collisions, at the time of merging, the speed of ego vehicle, and the inter-vehicle distance of object vehicles on the main road and the distance to the merging point are measured previously. Using these parameters, we derived a calculation method of the acceleration required for safe merging between the vehicles on a main road. In addition, as the acceptable upper and lower limits of the vehicle's acceleration are defined. It is possible to predict whether the vehicle can safely merge with acceptable acceleration/deceleration.
