As autonomous vehicles (AVs) operate in increasingly dynamic traffic conditions, lateral control must be performed while longitudinal speed and acceleration vary. Yet many existing lateral controllers rely on constant-speed or operating-point-based assumptions, which can degrade…
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 disturbances propagate along a platoon. While longitudinal string sta…
Cooperative localization using range-based measurements is critical for multi-robot systems operating in GPS-denied and unstructured environments. However, traditional cooperative approaches require sharing explicit spatial coordinates across the network, presenting a severe secu…
