Abstract:Vehicle platoons can significantly improve traffic throughput and reduce fuel consumption and emissions. In the formation of platoons, it is crucial to generate safe merging gaps. This process requires appropriate cooperative management and control strategies. This study proposes a cooperative interaction strategy for vehicle platoons, including a communication management system and vehicle control strategies. These strategies can reduce velocity fluctuation in the process of gap generation and improve traffic… Show more
