摘要: 为确保通信延时条件下协同式自适应巡航控制(CACC)系统的弦稳定性，利用模型预测控制(MPC)和长短期记忆(LSTM)预测方法，研究CACC系统中车辆协同控制下的通信延时补偿方法；基于车辆队列四元素架构理论，构建了包括车辆动力学模型、间距策略、网络拓扑和MPC纵向控制器的系统模型，并综合考虑2范数和无穷范数弦稳定性条件，提出了CACC车辆队列混合范数弦稳定性量化指标，最终形成协同式车辆队列建模与评价体系；设计了一种利用前车加速度轨迹(PVAT)作为开环优化参考轨迹的MPC方法，即MPC-PVAT，通过综合考虑队列的跟驰、安全、通行效率和燃油消耗等性能指标，使目标函数趋于最小代价，从而得到当前时刻的最优控制量，并利用庞特里亚金最大值原理对所设计的优化问题进行快速求解；在MPC-PVAT基础上，提出一种基于长短期记忆(LSTM)网络的通信延时补偿方法，即MPC-LSTM，将跟驰车辆的传感器信息输入LSTM网络来预测其前车的运动状态，从而缓解短暂通信延时对车辆队列稳定性的影响。仿真测试结果表明：MPC-LSTM可容忍的通信延时上界大于1.5 s，比MPC-PVAT提升了0.8 s，比线性控制器提升了1.1 s；在基于实车数据测试中，当通信延时增加到1.2 s时，MPC-LSTM的弦稳定性指标相比MPC-PVAT提升了20.33%，与线性控制器相比稳定性提升了39.35%。可见，在通信延时较大的情况下，MPC-LSTM对通信延时具有很好的容忍性，从而有效地保证了CACC车辆队列的弦稳定性。Abstract: The model predictive control (MPC) and long short term memory (LSTM) methods were used to mitigate the impact of communication delay on the cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) platooning system. A communication delay compensation method was proposed to guarantee the string stability of the CACC platooning system. A system framework was designed including vehicle dynamics model, spacing strategy, information topology and MPC controller. Moreover, a quantitative indicator of the string stability was proposed by considering 2 norm and infinite norm conditions. Consequently, a modeling and evaluation methodology of the CACC platooning system was constructed. A MPC method was proposed to take the preceding vehicle acceleration trajectory (PVAT) of the preceding vehicle as reference trajectory, namely MPC-PVAT. The following, traffic safety, traffic efficiency and fuel consumption were considered comprehensively. An objective function was minimized to construct the optimal control. The Pontryagin maximum principle was used to efficiently solve the optimization problem. Furthermore, a long short term memory network was used on the MPC-PVAT. The PVAT was replaced by the predicted result in the MPC of the preceding vehicle. The MPC-PVAT was upgraded to the MPC-LSTM. Therefore, the effect of communication delay was further mitigated. Simulation results show that the upper bound of communication delay is more than 1.5 s by using the MPC-LSTM, and improves by 0.8 and 1.1 s compared with the MPC-PVAT and linear controller, respectively. For the field test results, when the communication delay is 1.2 s, the quantitative indicator of the string stability of the MPC-LSTM improves by 20.33% and 39.35% compared with the MPC-PVAT and linear controller, respectively. Consequently, the MPC-LSTM can guarantee the string stability of a CACC platooning system while the effect of communication delay is well tolerated.
