Overview • Introduction • Components • Design • Implementation • Results and Observations • Further Work • References • Demo/Video
Goals of the Project • Study the ACC application and to identify • Components • Algorithms • Real-Time Issues • Real-Time approach to Design • Setup a basic platform
Introduction to ACC • Extension of Cruise Control. • Operates either in • Distance Control state • Speed Control state Des_Dist = Host_Vel * Timegap + ∆ where Host_Vel is Host Vehicle velocity TimeGap is set by the driver ∆ for additional safety
Requirements • Functional: • Detect leading vehicle. • Maintain desired speed. • Maintain desired timegap. • Communicate actions to User Interface • Non-Functional (timing constraints): • Response Time • Data update rate and so on… • ISO Limitations: • mean dec ≤ 3.0 m/s2(over 2 s), • acceleration ≤ 2 m/s2

State Switching Issue • When to switch state? S-to-D: Curr_Dist < TimeGap * Host_Vel + ∆ D-to-S: (Host_Vel > Des_Vel) || (Curr_Dist ≥ TimeGap * Host_Vel + ∆) • Chattering S-to-D: Curr_Dist < TimeGap * Host_Vel + ∆ - hyst D-to-S: (Host_Vel > Des_Vel) || (Curr_Dist ≥ TimeGap * Host_Vel + ∆ + hyst && RoD ≤ 0 && RoD ≥0) where RoD is Rate of change of Distance
Task and Data Items • Tasks: WheelTi(1≤i≤4), SpeedT, RadarT, DriverT, SwitchT, ExceptionT, AdjLaneT, FrictionT, AdaptT, ModeSwT. • Data Items: WheelSpeed[wi], HostVel, LeadVel, LeadDist, RoadType, LeftLane[vi, di], RightLane[vi, di], DesAcc, DesSpeed.
Dist … … … Time Issues • Dynamically varying data Prepare for the Worst Over-Sampling
Issues (cont…) • When to Update Unnecessary Updates
Issues (cont…) • All Tasks and Data throughout the system operation?? • AdaptT when lead car is near • AdjLaneT, TimeLeftT when car is far Poor CPU utilization Scheduling Overhead Not modular
Approach • Mode-Change System • Exclusive modes of operation • Mode change leads to: • Addition of a task • Change in frequency of execution • Deletion of a task • Data Repository (Neera Sharma) • updates in response to changes in the data items (on-demand update).
Approach (cont…) • Mode-Change System • Dynamically varying data • All Tasks and Data throughout the system operation • Data Repository • Dynamically varying data • Derived Data Items
Issues • With mode-changes: • How many modes • What triggers mode change • When to switch mode • Chattering • Mode-change delay • Schedulability • With Data Repository • How many levels • When to update
Solution to mode-change • How many? • Two: Safety-Critical(SC), Non-Safety Critical(NC) • When to switch? • Finish task execution. • Mode-change delay • Bounded by longest periodicity task. • Schedulability • Static checking.
Solution to mode-change… • What triggers mode change? LeadDist • OR RoD • OR • LeadDist & RoD
Solution to mode-change… • Chattering • In SC Mode: (Safe_Dist+ < Curr_Dist ≤ Follow_Dist-) || (Follow_Dist+ < Curr_Dist ≤ Radar_Dist && RoD = DECR-FAST) || (Follow_Dist- < Curr_Dist ≤ Follow_Dist+ && Curr_Mode = SC) • In NC Mode: (Follow_Dist+ < Curr_Dist ≤ Radar_Dist && RoD ≠ DECR-FAST) || (Follow_Dist- < Curr_Dist ≤ Follow_Dist+ && Curr_Mode = NC)
Solution to Data Repository • How many levels Example: First-Level: Raw data from radar, wheel sensor, etc… Second-Level: Host Velocity, Lead Distance, etc…
Solution to Data Repository… • When to update First-Level: Continous Second-Level: On-Demand based on R(d)
Scheduling • Mode-Change approach • All Tasks are identified in advance. • All tasks are periodic. • RMS • Data Repository approach • Aperiodic tasks. • Guarantee to aperiodic tasks. • CBS
