Abstract
This paper presents a cooperative longitudinal control system for a cluster of vehicles using an
environment sensor (radar) and vehicle-to-vehicle communication. The controller computes a desired
acceleration that is realized by a lower-level control loop to obtain a smooth and safe traffic
flow in a string of vehicles. State information from the host vehicle and preceding vehicles, obtained
by environment sensing and vehicle-to-vehicle communication, are fused to obtain reliable
signals. The system is evaluated on functional performance using test drives.
