Carrier vehicle i.e. lorry, speed controlling method for adaptative cruise control system, involves determining control speed of carrier vehicle corresponding to minimum speed defined between observed, acceleration and set point speed

摘要

The method involves calculating an observed speed of a target vehicle (31) when a carrier vehicle (30) i.e. lorry, is displaced on a circulation path (47) in which the target vehicle is moved in a safety headway, from the vehicle (30) based on measured target vehicle and inter-vehicle speed, braking potential, inter-vehicle time and minimum marginal distance between the vehicles. Authorized lateral acceleration speed is calculated. A control speed of the vehicle (30) corresponding to a minimum speed defined between the observed, acceleration and displayed set point speed, is determined.
