Resource-Efficient and Secure Automated Vehicle Platoons

Speaker: Qinglong Han
Time: September 24th, Sunday, 9:10-9:50
Venue: Conference Center third floor academic lecture hall

Abstract:Vehicle platooning has been regarded as a promising intelligent transportation system technology for achieving cooperative automated driving systems and automated highway systems due to its promising benefits, including improved road safety, highway capacity and traffic congestion relief, and reduced fuel consumption. Two critical challenges of accomplishing automated vehicle platoons are: 1) to deal with the intermittent and sporadic vehicle-to-vehicle data transmissions caused by limited wireless communication resources; and 2) to tackle the malicious cyber-attacks on the vehicle-to-vehicle communication channels.

The essentials of evolutionary platooning control technologies are first introduced for connected automated vehicles. After a brief historical background of connected automated vehicles and vehicle platooning, several key issues in the design and implementation of an automated vehicle platooning control system are elaborated. An emphasis is then placed on two emerging platooning control techniques: resource-efficient vehicle platooning and secure vehicle platooning. Furthermore, simulation and validation results under these two control techniques are presented. Finally, some challenging issues and concluding remarks are drawn.

PIP control for networked multi-agent systems

Speaker: Guoping Liu
Time: September 24th   10:30 -11:10, 2023
Venue: Conference Center third floor academic lecture hall

Abstract:With the rapid development of network technology and control technology, networked multi-agent control system has a wide range of application potential in human daily life and scientific application engineering fields, such as: industrial Internet, Internet of things, energy Internet, car networking and so on. Due to the limited network communication, it brings great challenges to the design, analysis and implementation of networked multi-agent control systems. This report mainly introduces networked multi-agent system, proportional Integral-predictive (PIP) control strategy, dynamic and static coordinated control, stability and consistency synchronous analysis, networked multi-agent control system implementation. The experimental platform of networked control system based on research and development, introduces the real-time simulation and real experiment of networked multi-agent control system, and demonstrates the effectiveness and practicability of networked multi-agent control system.
