Collaborative Fault Tolerant Control of Non-Signalized Intersections for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles

Conference ·

With the potential of increased penetration of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), intersectional signal control faces new challenges in terms of its operation and implementation. One possibility is to fully make use of the communication capabilities of CAVs so that intersectional signal control can be realized by CAVs alone – this leads to non-signalized intersectional operation for traffic networks in urban areas. In this paper, the state-of-the-art on collaborative fault tolerant control schemes for complex systems will be briefly described. This is then followed by the formulation of operational fault tolerant control that realizes the collaborative fault tolerance functionality at CAVs operational level in response to possible individual vehicle faults, where detailed modelling using vehicle movement dynamics will be described together with the construction of fast fault diagnosis and a collaborative fault tolerant control algorithm. A simple example will be given as well to demonstrate the proposed algorithm together with the discussions on other issues such as randomness of the system, communication errors and full energy consideration. These leads to several future directions of the research for the traffic flow control of non-signalized intersections with 100% penetration of CAVs.
