Project 2-Highway Assistant-Lane Changing Assistant

Highway Assistant – Lane Changing Assistant

Aim of the Project: -

To develop one specific requirement of Highway Assistant – Lane Changing Assistant algorithm to familiarize with concepts of Autosar Software Component Development in MATLAB Environment by following the Model Based Development guidelines. This model must be developed in MATLAB Simulink per MBD guidelines.

The objective of this Project: -

  • Code Generation Profile must be Autosar Coder.
  • Simulink Data Dictionary must be created for the model & must be linked to the model.
  • All the input & output signals must be mapped into the Autosar Editor.
  • Model Advisor Report is mandatory & this will be followed by Code Generation.

Introduction to the Feature:

The Highway Assistant supports the driver and takes over the longitudinal and lateral guidance of the vehicle in monotonous driving situations on highways. The partially automated function can automatically start, accelerate, brake as well as steer the vehicle to a certain extent. The driver has to permanently supervise the system and be ready to take over the complete control of the vehicle at any time.

Drivers are taught to assess surrounding traffic before changing lanes by checking their rearview and side mirrors and looking over each shoulder. However, even for those who follow this sequence of checks, the vehicle's blind spot – the area alongside and just behind the vehicle – is a constant source of danger and often the cause of serious accidents. Even vehicles approaching quickly from behind can pose a risk. To make changing lanes safer, this feature has been developed.

Basic Working Principle:

Highway Assistant is a partially automated driving function for a speed range of up to 180 km/h (112 mph) on highways. It combines the radar-based longitudinal guidance of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with the video-based lateral guidance of lane keeping support in one system. Highway Assistant can be supplemented by an automatic lane change initiated and monitored by the driver in a speed range of 60 – 130 km/h (35 – 80 mph).

The lane Change Assistant works by using two mid-range radar sensors that are concealed in the rear bumper – one on the left, one on the right. These two sensors monitor the area alongside and behind the car. Powerful control software collates the sensor information to create a complete picture of all traffic in the area behind the vehicle.Whenever another vehicle approaches at speed from behind or is already present in the blind spot, a signal such as a warning light in the side mirror alerts the driver to the hazard. Should the driver still activate the turn signal with the intention of changing lanes, the system issues an additional acoustic and/or haptic warning.
