A Test and Evaluation Method for Autonomous Vehicle Following System

With the rapid development of intelligent driving technology, autonomous vehicle following system has been widely used. In this paper, the technical characteristics, test methods and standards of the current autonomous following system are analyzed. Combining with the capability and ODD of the autonomous following system of vehicles on sale, a vehicle test and evaluation method of the autonomous following system is proposed, and a reasonable and feasible test technical scheme is put forward. The proposed test evaluation method and test technical scheme were verified by using automatic driving robot, GST&SCT and other test equipment. The test results show that there is space for further refinement in the evaluation of comfort, and the evaluation of safety can represent the safety of the tested vehicle in a relatively comprehensive way.
