Addresses issues regarding the implementation of an integration of several specific technologies involved in achieving lateral guidance of an experimental automotive vehicle on an automated highway. Results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed discrete magnetic marker reference/sensing...

This report summarizes an experimental effort in integrating and testing an automated vehicle lateral control system. The project, a cooperative effort between the California Partners for Advanced Transit and Highway ( PATH) Program and IMRA America, Inc., included a discrete roadway reference...

A Fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is designed and implemented in real time on a Toyota Celica test vehicle to achieve control of the lateral motion of the vehicle. The structure of the FLC is modularized as a feedback, preview, and gain scheduling rule base. The parameters of the FLC are tuned...
