Creating an overtaking maneuver in the Prescan virtual environment

Abstract

Autonomous vehicles have to deal with many driving situations during their operation. One such maneuver is the overtaking maneuver. In this maneuver, a vehicle travelling at a higher speed overtakes a vehicle travelling at a lower speed in the same lane. This paper proposes an overtaking maneuver of a vehicle equipped with technology-independent sensors (TIS) and camera on a straight road, where the obstacle is also a moving vehicle. Prescan and MATLAB - Simulink software is used for the simulation.
