After-treatment regeneration system and method utilizing neutral control

A mild hybrid vehicle controlling method, wherein the mild hybrid vehicle has a driver assistance module for detecting peripheral vehicle information and a mild hybrid starter & generator (MSHG) may comprises comparing, by a controller, the peripheral vehicle information with a predetermined reference value and deciding whether after-treatment regeneration control is performed or not according to a result of the comparison.

OPERATION OF VEHICLE STATIONARY GENERATOR

A controller of a vehicle, while the vehicle is within a predefined geofenced region and responsive to the vehicle entering park, increases a maximum state of charge threshold for the battery and decreases a minimum state of charge threshold for the battery. The controller also, while the vehicle is located within the predefined geofenced region and responsive to the vehicle exiting park, decreases the maximum state of charge threshold and increases the minimum state of charge threshold.

Vehicle control system, vehicle control method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

A control system of a vehicle that can travel in a first state in which travel control is performed based on a position of a white line on a travel lane and in a second state in which travel control is performed based on a travel position of another vehicle. Periphery information is obtained of the vehicle. It is determined, based on the periphery information obtained, whether an emergency vehicle is approaching. A control unit configured to perform control so that travel control in the first state is prioritized when it is determined that the emergency vehicle is not approaching. Travel control in the second state is prioritized when it is determined that the emergency vehicle is approaching.

11521495 · 2022-12-06 ·

The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a device and a readable storage medium for planning a pass path. The method includes: acquiring current road environment information in front of a vehicle; setting pass candidate points according to the current road environment information and a driving strategy; and determining a current optimal passable path according to the pass candidate points. Since the pass candidate points are set according to the current road environment information and the driving strategy, and the current optimal passable path is determined according to the pass candidate points, thereby effectively decreasing the calculation amount of the impassable path calculation in prior art due to direct setting of pass candidate points in all areas in front of an unmanned vehicle.

The control unit determines a predicted trajectory of the transportation vehicle, determines a predicted path of the transportation vehicle and receives a predicted trajectory and vehicle geometry data of the other transportation vehicle via the data connection, determines a predicted path of the other transportation vehicle, determines a possible collision of the transportation vehicle with the other transportation vehicle, and in response to a possible collision, outputs a warning signal by the at least one output element and/or carries out an automated driving maneuver by the driving system.

Enhanced threat selection

A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to predict a heading angle of a target vehicle, determine a distance between a host vehicle and a center line of the target vehicle based on the predicted heading angle, and perform a threat assessment for the target vehicle when the distance is below a threshold.

Methods and systems for performing inter-trajectory re-linearization about an evolving reference path for an autonomous vehicle

A system of linearizing a trajectory of an autonomous vehicle about a reference path includes a computing device and a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium includes one or more programming instructions that, when executed, cause the computing device to receive a reference path for an autonomous vehicle, where the reference path defines a proposed trajectory for the autonomous vehicle in a Cartesian reference frame, identify an objective based on the received reference path, where the objective comprises a longitudinal component and a lateral component, project the objective into a curvilinear coordinate frame described by the received reference path, decouple the longitudinal component and the lateral component, linearize the lateral component about the reference path, generate a new reference path for the autonomous vehicle by fusing the linearized longitudinal component and the linearized lateral component, and map the new reference path back to the Cartesian reference frame.
