Highway Discretionary Lane-change Decision and Control Using Model Predictive Control
<|reference_start|>Highway Discretionary Lane-change Decision and Control Using Model Predictive Control: To enable autonomous vehicles to perform discretionary lane change amidst the random traffic flow on highways, this paper introduces a decision-making and control method for vehicle lane change based on Model Predictive Control (MPC). This approach divides the driving control of vehicles on highways into two parts: lane-change decision and lane-change control, both of which are solved using the MPC method. In the lanechange decision module, the minimum driving costs for each lane are computed and compared by solving the MPC problem to make lane-change decisions. In the lane-change control module, a dynamic bicycle model is incorporated, and a multi-objective cost function is designed to obtain the optimal control inputs for the lane-change process. Additionally, A long-short term memory (LSTM) model is used to predict the trajectories of surrounding vehicles for both the MPC decision and control modules. The proposed lane-change decision and control method is simulated and validated in a driving simulator under random highway traffic conditions.<|reference_end|>
