Abstract: A controller for an adaptive braking system on a host vehicle identifies a first target in a lane of travel of the host vehicle; monitors for an active braking intervention request; monitors for other targets in adjacent lanes of travel to the host vehicle; and transmits a first braking signal at the output to control a braking action at a first braking level in response to receiving the active braking intervention request and identifying no other targets in adjacent lanes of travel to the host vehicle. If the controller identifies a second target in an adjacent lane of travel, then receives a travel signal indicative of change in the direction of travel of the host vehicle toward the second target; it will transmit a second braking signal to control the braking action at a second braking level. The second level of braking is different than the first level of braking.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for an adaptive cruise control that controls a speed of a host vehicle as a passing vehicle quickly passes through a trajectory of the host vehicle. In one form, a system includes at least one processor that is configured to determine that a passing vehicle is entering a trajectory in which the host vehicle is travelling based on a longitudinal speed, a longitudinal acceleration, a lateral speed, and a lateral acceleration of the passing vehicle; determine to maintain a follow distance of an adaptive cruise control system of the host vehicle to at least one target vehicle in the trajectory in which the host vehicle is traveling prior to the passing vehicle entering the trajectory; and to maintain the follow distance to the at least one target vehicle while the passing vehicle passes through the trajectory in which the host vehicle is traveling.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for platoon initialization, redundant lane departure control, and redundant communication operation. A platooning initiation strategy requires continuous communication between vehicles for a more than a pre-defined duration, a demonstration of an operable brake light on the leading vehicle, and command control profile compatibility between the vehicles before allowing the vehicles to mutually platoon or to join an existing platoon. A set of computer readable labels visible to a Lane Departure System placed on a lead vehicle are used by a following vehicle when lane markings become invisible to sensors. A redundant brake lamp operable in a non-visible spectrum is provided for platooning. A specific brake lamp for use exclusively for platooning purposes may be provided.

Abstract: A system and method system for determining when an object detected by a collision avoidance sensor on one member of an articulated vehicle comprises another member of the vehicle are provided. The system includes a collision avoidance sensor disposed on a first member of the vehicle and configured to detect an object within a field of view of the sensor on a side of the first member of the vehicle. The system further includes a controller configured to determine an articulation angle between the first member of the vehicle and a second member of the vehicle and to determine in response to the articulation angle, whether the second member of the vehicle is the object within the field of view of the collision avoidance sensor on the first member of the vehicle.

Abstract: A system and method system for determining the positions of one or more collision avoidance sensors on a vehicle is provided. The system includes one or more sensors disposed on the vehicle and configured to generate electromagnetic waves within corresponding fields of view on a side of the vehicle and to receive reflections of the waves from objects passing through the field of view of each sensor. A controller receives signals generated by the sensors responsive to the reflections and determines, responsive to the signals, relative speeds and relative directions of movement of the objects relative to the vehicle. The controller further determines the position of the sensors on the vehicle responsive to the relative speeds and relative directions of movement. In particular, the controller determines the location of sensors relative to the vehicle centerline and the relative positions and distances between sensors in the direction of vehicle travel.

Abstract: A system for determining the length of a road train includes controllers on both towing and towed vehicles. Each controller may transmit a vehicle length and GPS coordinates in a specified wireless message format. The towing vehicle controller receives a first wireless message from the towed vehicle controller. The wireless message includes at least one of a speed of the towed vehicle, a length of the towed vehicle and GPS coordinates of the towed vehicle. The towing vehicle controller determines if the towed vehicle transmitting the message is coupled to the towed vehicle and then adds the length of the towed vehicle to the length of the towing vehicle to attain an overall length of the road train in response to the determination that the towed vehicle transmitting the wireless message is coupled to the towing vehicle. The towing vehicle controller then transmits the overall length of the road train.
