Abstract

In this paper, we design a vehicle following control system with variable time headways, using adaptive control design methodology. It is shown that the designed vehicle following control system guarantees closed-loop system stability, and that it regulates the speed and separation errors towards zero when the lead vehicle is at a constant speed. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed vehicle following control system when applied to a validated nonlinear vehicle model.
