A study on vehicle lateral motion control using DGPS/RTK

초록

In recent days, most vehicles have become equipped with electric assist systems helping drivers driving safe in roads. Sudden lateral motion of vehicle due to drivers' fatigue, inattention, and drowsiness are major causes of accidents in roads. In order to prevent possible accidents due to such motions of vehicle, lateral motion control system of vehicle is designed and validated in this study. The location of vehicle is obtained by using Differential Global Positioning System/Real Time Kinematic (DGPS/RTK). When vehicles depart from any lanes, vehicle motion control system is activated to put vehicles back to lanes. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
