Abstract

This paper introduces a lane-keeping controller of vehicles considering two different time delays in the control loop. It focuses on the impact of time delays on system stability and control performance. A mathematical model for lane-keeping is used to design the hierarchical controller. The upper-level controller employs linear state feedback to determine the desired steering angle, considering different time delays corresponding to the lateral position and the yaw angle signals. The lower-level controller applies the steering torque via PD control to achieve the desired steering angle. The D-subdivision is utilised to analyse the linear stability of the rectilinear motion. The semi-discretization method is applied to provide the most stable control gains for various time delay combinations. It is shown that an appropriately increased time delay may not only expand the stable domain for the control gains, but it can also enhance the performance of the vehicle controller. The effectiveness and feasibility of the optimised hierarchical lane-keeping controller are verified through small-scale experiments.
