A Survey on Cooperative Longitudinal Motion Control of Multiple Connected and Automated Vehicles
Fuel Efficient Connected Cruise Control for Heavy-Duty Trucks in Real Traffic
In this paper, we present a systematic approach for fuel-economy optimization of a connected automated truck that utilizes motion information from multiple vehicles ahead via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. Position and velocity data collected from a chain of human-driven vehicles are utilized to design a connected cruise controller that smoothly responds to traffic perturbations while maximizing energy efficiency. The proposed design is evaluated using a high-fidelity truck model and the robustness of the design is validated on real traffic data sets. It is shown that optimally utilizing V2V connectivity leads to around 10% fuel economy improvements compared to the best nonconnected design

Connected cruise control design using probabilistic model checking
In this paper, we synthesize a connected cruise controller with performance guarantee using probabilistic model checking, for a vehicle that receives motion information from several vehicles ahead through wireless vehicle-to-vehicle communication. We model the car-following dynamics of the preceding vehicles as Markov chains and synthesize the connected cruise controller as a Markov decision process. We show through simulations that such a design is robust against imperfections in communication
