"Multiobjective Platooning of Connected and Automated Vehicles Using Di" by Jie Luo, Defeng He et al.
This paper considers the multi-objective platooning control problem of a group of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) with bidirectional topologies. A new distributed economic model predictive control (DEMPC) algorithm is presented to reconcile the conflict of the control objectives of tracking, safety, stability and fuel economy of the heterogeneous vehicle platoon with guaranteed string stability. Using transient engine energy efficiency indices and cooperative performance of tracking and string stability, two distributed receding horizon optimal control problems are orderly formulated b...
