“…For this purpose, a controller, K P (s) based on a standard PD-control structure [25], [26], can be easily adjusted to get stability with respect to the immediately preceding vehicle but, as previously demonstrated [27], this is not enough to guarantee string stability. Exchanging information among vehicles using wireless communications permits improving the vehicle's response as well as significantly reducing time gaps, keeping safety.…”

Abstract-Intelligent vehicle cooperation based on reliable communication systems contributes not only to reducing traffic accidents, but also to improving traffic flow. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) systems can gain enhanced performance by adding vehicle-vehicle wireless communication to provide additional information to augment range sensor data, leading to Cooperative ACC (CACC). This paper presents the design, development, implementation and testing of a CACC system. It consists of two controllers, one to manage the approaching maneuver to the leading vehicle and the other to regulate car-following once the vehicle joins the platoon. The system has been implemented on four production Infiniti M56s vehicles, and this paper details the results of experiments to validate the performance of the controller and its improvements with respect to the commercially available ACC system.

“…The automatic driving vehicles equipped with the system have been driving a hundred kilometers in the actual environment of safely, achieving good results. Literature [8] established a cooperative driving relationship among the vehicles, the vehicle will current vehicle automatically adjust when the vehicle changes the speed, to maintain stable vehicle distance, and avoid the accidents caused by emergency brake.…”

“…Following the previous literature about ACC and CACC designs [9,18,19] and the algorithms from [14], the timegap setting of the CACC is set to 0.5 s if following a CACC vehicle. In other words, when both vehicles are CACC equipped, their time gap setting is set to 0.5 s where both vehicles are connected via wireless communication.…”

Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) vehicles are intelligent vehicles that use vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) to share traffic information in real time. Previous studies have shown that CACC could have an impact on increasing highway capacities at high market penetration. Since reaching a high CACC market penetration level is not occurring in the near future, this study presents a progressive deployment approach that demonstrates to have a great potential of reducing traffic congestions at low CACC penetration levels. Using a previously developed microscopic traffic simulation model of a freeway with an on-ramp -created to induce perturbations and trigger stop-and-go traffic, the CACC system s effect on the traffic performance is studied. The results show significance and indicate the potential of CACC systems to improve traffic characteristics which can be used to reduce traffic congestion. The study shows that the impact of CACC is positive and not only limited to a high market penetration. By giving CACC vehicles priority access to high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, the highway capacity could be significantly improved with a CACC penetration as low as 20%.
