Title:
2つの車両間のドッキング過程を制御する方法および装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4690626
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A method is for regulating the speed of an automobile and the distance of the automobile from at least one automobile driving in front during a docking process, the driving speed of the automobile being greater than that of the automobile in front. According to the method, a detection device with a distance sensor is used to determine at least the speed of the automobile, the relative speed and the distance from the automobile in front, and the value of a normal acceleration for a braking operation of the vehicle is calculated according to the difference between a predetermined normal desired following distance and the distance and the relative speed. The technical problem of further improving the functioning of a method of this type and the corresponding device and ensuring comfortable driving behavior during the docking process between the two automobiles is solved by calculating the value for a limit acceleration for a braking operation of the automobile according to the difference between a predetermined limit desired following distance and the distance and the relative speed, by determining the greater of the two values for the normal acceleration and the limit acceleration in terms of amount, as the braking acceleration to be applied, and braking the automobile with the braking acceleration. A device for performing the method includes two proportionality regulators for calculating the normal acceleration and the limit acceleration.
