Decentralized optimal control of a vehicle platoon with guaranteed string stability
Résumé
This paper presents new decentralized optimal strategies for Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) of a car platoon under string-stability constraints. Two related scenarios are explored in the article: in the first one, a linear-quadratic regulator in the presence of measurable disturbances is synthesized, and the string-stability of the platoon is enforced over the controller's feedback and feedforward gains. In the second scenario, H2- and Hinf-performance criteria, respectively accounting for the desired group behavior and the string-stability of the platoon, are simultaneously achieved using the recently-proposed compensator blending method. An analytical study of the impact of actuation/communication delays and uncertain model parameters on the stability of the multi-vehicle system, is also conducted. The theory is illustrated via numerical simulations.
