Abstract

This paper studies formation control of multi-lane platoons of vehicles, endowed with local positioning capabilities, under the influence of noises and inconsistencies of intervehicle relative position measurements. We propose a distributed two-level control framework that consists of a high-level relative position based distributed formation control scheme and low-level individual dynamic controllers of the platoon vehicles. The proposed formation control scheme utilizes deadzone based switching for robustness against sensor noises and adaptive longitudinal controllers for enabling the platoon of heterogeneous vehicles to track the desired platoon velocity.
