A system for a host vehicle and includes a memory and a vehicle control module. The memory stores autonomous status bits for each local vehicle. The autonomous status bits indicate whether the corresponding local vehicle is operating in a non-autonomous, semi-autonomous, or fully autonomous mode. The vehicle control module: generates autonomous status bits indicative of an autonomous status level of the host vehicle and transmits the autonomous status bits in a message to first vehicle communication devices; determines that local vehicles are in a local environment of the host vehicle; receives messages including the autonomous status bits of the local vehicles from second vehicle communication devices; and unless operating in a fully autonomous mode, generates a request for a driver of the host vehicle to take control of the host vehicle based on the autonomous status bits of the host vehicle and the local vehicles.

Provided is an intelligent vehicle safety driving envelope reconstruction method on the basis of integrated spatial and dynamic characteristics. Starting from simulating an actual driver's estimation of potential collision risks in the forward driving area, a prediction result of a front vehicle driving behavior is introduced to an environment perception link of the intelligent vehicle; on the basis of the prediction result of the front vehicle driving behavior, a safety driving envelope of the intelligent vehicle is reconstructed by integrating spatial and dynamic characteristics (a safety environment envelope reconstruction and a stable control envelope reconstruction), so as to improve the safety and stability of intelligent vehicle. First, based on the prediction of the front vehicle driving behavior, a lateral and a longitudinal distance between the intelligent vehicle and the front vehicle are corrected, to realize the envelop reconstruction of the safety environment of the intelligent vehicle and to improve the safety of intelligent vehicle. Then, on the basis of the reconstructed safety environment envelope and an dynamical model of the intelligent vehicle, the stable control envelope of the intelligent vehicle is reconstructed, so as to improve the stability of the intelligent vehicle.

Systems and methods for implementing and/or validating a model reference adaptive control (MRAC) for human-in-the-loop control of a vehicle system. A first operator model is applied to a first feedback-loop-based MRAC scheme, wherein the first operator model is configured to adjust a control command provided as an input to the MRAC scheme based at least in part on an actual action of the vehicle system and a reference action for the vehicle system with a time-delay. A stability limit of a first operating parameter is determined for the MRAC scheme based on the application of the first operator model to the first feedback-loop-based MRAC scheme. The MRAC scheme is validated in response to determining that expected operating conditions of the first operating parameter are within the determined stability limit of the first operating parameter.
