Description
Summary:Studies on intelligent vehicles, among which the controlling method of intelligent vehicles is a key technique, have drawn the attention of industry and the academe. This study focuses on designing an intelligent lateral control algorithm for vehicles at various speeds, formulating a strategy, introducing the Gauss cloud model and the cloud reasoning algorithm, and proposing a cloud control algorithm for calculating intelligent vehicle lateral offsets. A real vehicle test is applied to explain the implementation of the algorithm. Empirical results show that if the Gauss cloud model and the cloud reasoning algorithm are applied to calculate the lateral control offset and the vehicles drive at different speeds within a direction control area of ±7°, a stable control effect is achieved.
