Abstract

This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) for autonomous vehicle path following control. To solve the control problem, a nonlinear path following model is used, which includes 2 degree-of-freedom single track vehicle dynamics model and path following error model. The control problem is to control vehicle to run on the reference path with the heading angle along the road orientation angle. Then, a controller based on MPC method is designed, and a C-based algorithm is implemented to solve the nonlinear optimization problem in real-time. The proposed control system is tested in a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform and the robustness is tested by adding noise to lateral vehicle speed and modifying model parameters. It is testified that the control performance is satisfied in different situations.
