Abstract :
Describes a fuzzy based intelligent cruise control which maintains speed and distance from preceding vehicles. The authors have developed a modular fuzzy controller that takes into account the specific driving and weather situation as well as the individual driver´s needs. This intelligent cruise control system has been implemented on a test-vehicle equipped with an infrared distance sensor and a drive-by-wire actuator system that allows accelerating and braking. Experiments prove the effectiveness of the approach and show the human-like behaviour of the intelligent cruise control system
