Project 2 Adaptive Cruise Control

                                                                            Main Project – Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

what is Adaptive Cruise Control ?

Adaptive Cruise Control Feature for passenger cars allows the host vehicle to adapt to the speed in line with the flow of traffic. Driving in heavy traffic or keeping a safe distance to the preceding vehicle calls for a high level of concentration .

I made a model and configuration how ACC system work and explane all the things details ?

Objective of Main Project:

1. Developing Adaptive Cruise Control feature as per the Requirement Document using MATLAB Simulink.
2. Follow all the MBD related processes: Requirement Tagging & Traceability, SLDD creation, Configuration Parameter changes, Model Advisor check & Code Generation.
3. In Configuration Parameters: enable “Support Floating Numbers” under Code Generation settings.
4. Use Embedded Coder to generate the code.
5. If choosing code generation, Storage class for Input signals: ImportedExtern; Storage class for Output signal: Export to File; Storage class for local signals: localizable; Storage class for calibration signals: Const.
6. Choose sample time for all signals as 0.01s

This is ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL subsystem block ,I used 8 signal as input and 1 output as Acceleration mode. I resolved all input signal first .in subsystem I explane everythings briefly

Requirement 1– Lead Vehicle:

• Lead Vehicle is a vehicle which is driving in the road ahead of our drive vehicle. Two input signals (Signal Name: CameraInput_LeadVehicle & RadarInput_LeadVehicle).
• Ideally sensor fusion techniques will be deployed to process & analyze data from camera & radar. For complexity reasons, let’s not adapt to any such algorithms.
• We can simply add both the radar & camera inputs & the corresponding output is read as Speed profile output (Signal Name: LeadVehicle_Speed).
• Speed data of the lead vehicle is critical in implementing the Adaptive Cruise Control algorithm.

In here one subsystem block is Lead Vehicle ,here used two input signals 1.camera input and 2.Rader input .camera input shows driver road conditions and reader input control as usual .Output signal connected with Acc Algorithum block.

By adding this two input signals the output will be LeadVehicle speed .

Requirement 2 – Drive Vehicle:

• Drive Vehicle is the vehicle driven by the user & this is the vehicle which has ACC algorithm in it.
• Like the Lead Vehicle, Drive Vehicle algorithm also has 2 input signals (Signal Name: CameraInput_DriveVehicle, RadarInput_DriveVehicle) & one signal coming as an Input to this subsystem (Signal Name: Acceleration_Mode) – three inputs into this requirement in total.
• Like the above requirement, sensor fusion techniques will also be deployed here, for complexity reasons we are ignoring them.
• Two output signals come from this subsystem (Signal Name: DriveVehicle_Speed & LeadVehicle_Detected).
• Signal DriveVehicle_Speed is summation of three input signals mentioned above & LeadVehicle_Detected is renamed from Input Signal RadarInput_DriveVehicle by mere use of Signal Conversion block.

Drive vehicle means The vehicle driven by the user and all controlled by the algorithm .

 

the three input signals camera input ,Raderinput and Acceleration input are adding togetherand signal conversion block connected with Rader input drive vehicle with Lead vehicle Detected .

Requirement 3 – Adaptive Cruise Control Algorithm:

• The input signals to this state machine system are (Signal Name: Time_Gap, Set_Speed, Set_Gap, CruiseSwitch, SetSwitch).
• Also, the output signals (Signal Name: DriveVehicle_Speed & LeadVehicle_Detected) from requirement-2 is fed back as an input signal into this state machine block.
• Additionally, output signal (Signal Name: LeadVehicle_Speed) from requirement-1 is given as an input signal to this state machine block as well.
• Output from this subsystem is a signal (Signal Name: Acceleration_Mode) which governs the vehicular speed of the drive vehicle which automatically adjusts its speed & velocity to match the lead vehicle.

Adaptive Cruise Control feature has 3 major modes of operation: OFF Mode, STANDBY Mode & ON Mode. This particular requirement has to be implemented as state machine logic in Simulink.This Adaptive Cruise Control fully based on control design in this ACC algorithum subsystem has flowchart which define below.

Requirement 3a – ACC OFF MODE state logic:

• This is the default state inside state machine logic. Output signal Acceleration_Mode is at value 0 in this state.
• This state is governed by input signal CruiseSwitch.
• If CruiseSwitch is equal to 1, state ACC STANDBY mode will get activated. If CruiseSwitch is equal to 0, state ACC OFF mode will get activated, from either ACC ON mode or ACC STANDBY mode.

Requirement 3b – ACC STANDBY MODE state logic:

• This is the second activated state inside state machine logic. Output signal Acceleration_Mode is at value 1 in this state.
• This state is governed by both input signals CruiseSwitch & SetSwitch.
• If CruiseSwitch is equal to 1, state ACC STANDBY mode will get activated. If CruiseSwitch is equal to 0, state ACC OFF mode will get activated, from either ACC ON mode or ACC STANDBY mode
• If SetSwitch is equal to 1, state ACC ON mode will get activated. If SetSwitch is equal to 0, state ACC STANDBY mode will get activated.

Yes , here have some logic first see acc off mode static logic ,this is default state .output signal acceleration _Mode is at 0 in this state if cruise switch is 1 then it goes to off mode to stand by mode and viceversa if cruise switch is 0 then it comes Acc Stand by Mood to Acc off mode.

Requirement 3c – ACC ON MODE state logic:

This state will be activated when input signal SetSwitch is equal to 1. There are 6 sub states to this state logic: They are:

• LeadVehicle_Detected_Follow (Default)
• LeadVehicle_Not_Detected
• LeadVehicle_Detected_Resume
• LeadVehicle_Not_Detected_Resume
• LeadVehicle_Speed_lessthan_Set_Speed

When signal comes from signal stand by mode lots off operation done Acc On mOde static logic.

Requirement 3c (i) – LeadVehicle_Detected_Follow (ACC ON MODE):

• This is the default sub state inside ACC ON MODE state. Output signal Acceleration_Mode is equal to 2.
• Condition to transit from LeadVehicle_Detected_Follow to LeadVehicle_Not_Detected; Input signal condition LeadVehicle_Detected == 0.
• Condition to transit from LeadVehicle_Detected_Follow to LeadVehicle_Speed_lessthan_Set_Speed; Input Signals condition (LeadVehicle_Detected == 1) && (LeadVehicle_Speed < Set_Speed) || (Time_Gap < Set_Gap).

• Condition to transit from LeadVehicle_Detected_Resume to LeadVehicle_Speed_equal_Set_Speed; Input Signal condition [(DriveVehicle_Speed < Set_Speed) && (LeadVehicle_Speed > DriveVehicle_Speed) && (Time_Gap >= Set_Gap)]

Requirement 3c (iv) - LeadVehicle_Not_Detected_Resume (ACC ON MODE):

Requirement 3c (vi) - LeadVehicle_Speed_equal_Set_Speed (ACC ON MODE):

• Output signal Acceleration_Mode is equal to 5.
• Condition to transit from LeadVehicle_Speed_equal_Set_Speed to LeadVehicle_Not_Detected_Resume; Input signal conditions is [(LeadVehicle_Detected == 0) || (DriveVehicle_Speed <= Set_Speed)]
• Condition to transit from LeadVehicle_Speed_equal_Set_Speed to LeadVehicle_Detected_Resume; Input signal conditions [(DriveVehicle_Speed < Set_Speed) && (LeadVehicle_Speed > DriveVehicle_Speed) || (Time_Gap >= Set_Gap)]
