Control system design for an Automatic Emergency Braking system in a sedan vehicle

Abstract

The Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) systems in vehicles is one of the technologies suggested by NHTSA to be included in vehicles by default. This article presents the dynamic model of the vehicle that should be considered to design control of EAB system. After that, the design of a classic controller is presented, following of some results of simulations, which let to identify variables to measure the comfort of automatic braking, and when and in which conditions the ABS systems act over an action of AEB. Finally, the Architecture of the implementation of the braking over CAN Networks is presented.
