Intelligent Control of Connected and Automated Vehicles

  • Online

Understand cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) for connected and automated vehicles, and explore recent developments made in human-centered CACC design in mixed traffic scenarios. 

What you will learn:

  • Describe the key components that enable CACC systems
  • Understand the linear controller design for CACC of a platoon of connected and automated vehicles under the given spacing policy, communication policy, and vehicle dynamics
  • Distinguish the different stability criteria for CACC platoons
  • Review platoon in mixed traffic scenarios and human-centered CACC design
