Research on Automatic Emergency Braking System Based on Target Recognition and Fusion Control Strategy in Curved Road

To address the issue of incorrect recognition in the automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems on curved roads, a target recognition model is proposed to obtain the road curvature and to calculate the relative lateral distance. Based on the information from the ego vehicle and the preceding vehicles, the accurate selection of the hazardous target is accomplished. After identifying the dangerous target, a control strategy based on the fusion algorithm is proposed, because the safety distance model and the Time-to-Collision (TTC) model both have their limitations and cannot ensure driving safety and comfort simultaneously. The TTC model is optimized according to the actual relative distance between two vehicles on curved roads, the graded warning strategy and braking intervention time are established by the TTC model. And then the graded braking strategy is designed according to the safety distance model. The simulation platform is built based on Carsim and Simulink for verification and analysis. The results demonstrate that the proposed AEB control strategy on curved roads can accurately and efficiently identify the target vehicles on curved roads, avoid false triggering issues, and improve the AEB system's reliability. And effectively avoid collisions with target vehicles that are in the same lane, improving driving safety and comfort.
