VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD
A control system for controlling generation of a steering overlay signal to control a trajectory of a host vehicle can include one or more controllers and is configured to identify a lateral boundary of the host-vehicle lane of travel. The control system monitors a position of the host vehicle in relation to the lateral boundary of the host-vehicle lane of travel. A lateral velocity of the host vehicle is determined by the control system. The steering overlay signal is generated based on a determination that the host vehicle is approaching or traversing the lateral boundary of the host-vehicle lane of travel and that the determined lateral velocity is greater than or equal to a first lateral velocity threshold. The control system can determine a lateral separation between the host vehicle and an object.

Trajectory generation using lateral offset biasing
A trajectory for a vehicle can be generated using a lateral offset bias. The vehicle, such as an autonomous vehicle (AV), may be directed to follow reference trajectory for through an environment. The AV may determine a segment associated with the reference trajectory based on curvatures of the reference trajectory, determine a lateral offset bias associated with the segment based at least in part on, for example, one or more of a speed or acceleration of the vehicle, and determine a candidate trajectory for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the lateral offset bias. The candidate trajectory may then be used to control the autonomous vehicle.

VEHICLE MOTION CONTROL DEVICE AND VEHICLE MOTION CONTROL METHOD
An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle motion control device that generates a travel path capable of realizing comfortable ride comfort and high safety with a small physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior such as a longitudinal acceleration, a lateral acceleration, and a vertical acceleration generated when a vehicle passes or avoids with respect to a predetermined region such as unevenness on a course of a vehicle. Therefore, the vehicle motion control device includes a vehicle behavior prediction portion that predicts a physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior that occurs when a vehicle maintains a reference route toward a predetermined region on a course and a physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior that occurs when the vehicle shifts to an avoidance route for avoiding the predetermined region, and a path generation portion that generates a travel path defined by the reference route or the avoidance route in which the physical quantity is smaller than a defined value.
