Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control
The Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (Eco-CACC) application is an extension to the adaptive cruise control (ACC) concept. Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control includes longitudinal automated vehicle control while considering eco-driving strategies. In addition to on-board sensors used in ACC, the application makes use of V2V communications to determine the preceding vehicle's speed, acceleration, and location. This application allows following vehicles to use CACC aimed at relieving a driver from manually adjusting his or her speed to maintain a constant speed and a safe time gap from the lead vehicle. The Eco-Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control application incorporates other information, such as road grade, roadway geometry, and road weather information, to determine the most environmentally efficient trajectory for the following vehicle. In the long term, the application may also consider vehicle platooning, where two or more vehicles travel with small gaps, reducing aerodynamic drag. Platooning relies on V2V communication that allows vehicles to accelerate or brake with minimal lag to maintain the platoon with the lead vehicle. The reduction in drag results in reduced fuel consumption, greater fuel efficiency, and less pollution for vehicles. This application is applicable to all vehicle classes and is similar to the Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control application.
