Stochastic Lp string stability analysis in predecessor-following platoons under packet losses
In this paper, we study (homogeneous) predecessor-following platoons in which the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications are affected by random packet losses. We model the overall platoon as a stochastic hybrid system and analyse its string stability via a small-gain approach. For nonlinear platoons, we illustrate how the different elements of the platoon have an impact on string stability, such as platoon topology and vehicle scheduling. For linear time-invariant platoons, we provide an explicit string stability condition that illustrates the interplay between the channel success probability, transmission rate, and time headway constant. Lastly, we illustrate our results by numerical simulations.

On stochastic string stability with applications to platooning over additive noise channels
This paper addresses the string stabilization of vehicular platooning when stochastic phenomena are inherent in inter-vehicle communication. To achieve this, we first provide two definitions to analytically assess the st…
Mean square stability conditions for platoons with lossy inter-vehicle communication channels
This paper studies the mean-square stability of heterogeneous LTI vehicular platoons with inter-vehicle communication channels affected by random data loss. We consider a discrete-time platoon system with predecessor fol…
Information Flow Topology in Mixed Traffic: A Comparative Study between "Looking Ahead" and "Looking Behind"
The emergence of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) promises smoother traffic flow. In mixed traffic where human-driven vehicles (HDVs) also exist, existing research mostly focuses on "looking ahead" (i.e., the CAVs…
Lateral String Stability for Vehicle Platoons
Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) platooning promises gains in energy efficiency and traffic throughput and, most critically, in safety. These safety benefits hinge on string stability, which determines how disturban…
Autonomous VehiclesSelection of Time Headway in Connected and Autonomous Vehicle Platoons under Noisy V2V Communication
In this paper, we investigate the selection of time headway to ensure robust string stability in connected and autonomous vehicle platoons in the presence of signal noise in Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication. In par…
