Abstract

This paper proposes a novel solution to the cooperative adaptive cruise control problem of a platoon of connected and autonomous vehicles. A low-gain control algorithm is designed to accommodate the requirement of the input saturation. The stability of the closed-loop system is rigorously analyzed. The effectiveness of the proposed computational control algorithm is demonstrated via numerical simulations.
