Lane-free signal-free intersection crossing via model predictive control
The operation of signal-free intersections, where Connected Automated Vehicles (CAVs) cross simultaneously for all Origin-Destination (OD) movements, has the potential to greatly increase throughput and reduce fuel consumption. Since the intersection crossing areas naturally include no lanes, an extended crossing area, appropriately delineated, can be considered as a lane-free infrastructure so as to enable further efficiency benefits. This paper presents two Model Predictive Control (MPC) schemes to manage CAVs in signal-free and lane-free intersections. In fact, the control inputs of all vehicles are optimized over a time-horizon by online solving of a joint Optimal Control Problem (OCP) that minimizes a cost function including proper terms to ensure smooth and collision-free vehicle motion, while also considering fuel consumption and desired-speed tracking, when possible. Additionally, appropriate constraints are designed to respect the intersection boundaries and ensure smooth vehicle movements towards their respective destinations. A fast Feasible Direction Algorithm (FDA) is employed for the numerical solution of the introduced OCP. Multiple simulations are carried out to assess the efficiency and practicality of the proposed methods. A comparison with signalized intersection operation is provided.
期刊介绍:
Control Engineering Practice strives to meet the needs of industrial practitioners and industrially related academics and researchers. It publishes papers which illustrate the direct application of control theory and its supporting tools in all possible areas of automation. As a result, the journal only contains papers which can be considered to have made significant contributions to the application of advanced control techniques. It is normally expected that practical results should be included, but where simulation only studies are available, it is necessary to demonstrate that the simulation model is representative of a genuine application. Strictly theoretical papers will find a more appropriate home in Control Engineering Practice''s sister publication, Automatica. It is also expected that papers are innovative with respect to the state of the art and are sufficiently detailed for a reader to be able to duplicate the main results of the paper (supplementary material, including datasets, tables, code and any relevant interactive material can be made available and downloaded from the website). The benefits of the presented methods must be made very clear and the new techniques must be compared and contrasted with results obtained using existing methods. Moreover, a thorough analysis of failures that may happen in the design process and implementation can also be part of the paper.
The scope of Control Engineering Practice matches the activities of IFAC.
Papers demonstrating the contribution of automation and control in improving the performance, quality, productivity, sustainability, resource and energy efficiency, and the manageability of systems and processes for the benefit of mankind and are relevant to industrial practitioners are most welcome.
