Description
This paper presents a control design with integral action for vehicle platoons with disturbances that ensures string stability of the closed-loop system and disturbance rejection. The addition of integral action and a coordinate change allows the development of sufficient smoothness conditions on the closed-loop system to ensure that the closed-loop system using the proposed controller is string stable when subject to time-varying disturbances, while rejecting constant disturbances. In addition, bounds for the tracking error of the platoon configuration are also given. A case study is considered together with a suitable controller structure, which satisfies the required smoothness conditions. Simulation results illustrate the performance of the closed-loop system.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
