Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication systems allow vehicles to share state information with one another to improve safety and efficiency of transportation networks. One of the key applications of such a system is in the prediction and avoidance of collisions between vehicles. If a method to do this is to succeed it must be robust to measurement uncertainty. The method should also be general enough...
In this study, we have generalized our previous tool for assisting a safety engineer in assessing collision trajectories by extending from colliding objects with constant velocity to more general variable velocity ones. We have also highlighted that a linear system cannot be relied upon for handling a colliding object with variable velocity. To deal with such trajectories, past observations are weighted...
We consider a model-based threat assessment method, which enables the activation of assisting safety interventions in case an accident threat to the driver is detected. The method relies on vehicle and driver mathematical models and reachability analysis tools. In particular, we focus on the problem of false threats detection that can occur due to uncertainties in the driver model, i.e., the driver...
In this paper, we consider model-based threat assessment methods which rely on vehicle and driver mathematical models and are based on reachability analysis tools and set invariance theory. We focus on the parametric uncertainties of the driver mathematical model and show how these can be accounted for in the threat assessment. The novelty of the proposed methods lies in the inclusion of the driver...
