The Flatbed Platoon Towing Model for Safe and Dense Platooning on Highways [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine, 2015
Optimizing the inter-distances between vehicles is very important to reduce traffic congestion on highways. Variable spacing and constant spacing are the two policies for the longitudinal control of platoons. Variable spacing doesn't require a lot of data (position, speed...) from other vehicles, and string stability can be obtained using on-board ...

An Overview on Approaches for Coordination of Platoons

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2022
In the recent past, platooning evolved into an attractive cooperative driving technology, broadly discussed in research and practice. Vehicles in platoons use cooperative adaptive cruise control to drive at close distances to each other. Platooning (i) increases the capacity of the street by a factor of 2; (ii) reduces the fuel consumption and ...

Improving Urban Traffic Throughput With Vehicle Platooning: Theory and Experiments

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In this paper we present a model-predictive control (MPC) based approach for vehicle platooning in an urban traffic setting. Our primary goal is to demonstrate that vehicle platooning has the potential to significantly increase throughput at ...
