Abstract:
Research is booming in the field of vehicle automation with prime motivation in improving driving comfort. The road traffic issues are booming to a new height as the number of vehicles is increasing day by day. Driving through an urban area is tiresome. If a control system can take you through this traffic congestion it will be a boon to car drivers whose life is depending on mobility. Cruise Control (CC) [1] was the first driver assistant launched into the market which can monitor the speed of the car. Later on CC was improved to Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) [1] with additional radars [11] and cameras. The entire control system has been remodelled in such a way that even the system takes the control of the car in locations where it is stressful to manoeuvre. Things moved into a new breed of control system on advancing ACC to Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) [2] [3]. The concept of platoon with inter-vehicle communication system and utilizing GPS [15] for precise manoeuvring along with String Stability has improved the vehicle density with drastic reduction in road accidents. The report gives an insight to CACC through ACC.
