#CMT# #/CMT# The method involves calculating an observed speed of a target vehicle (31) when a carrier vehicle (30) i.e. lorry, is displaced on a circulation path (47) in which the target vehicle is moved in a safety headway, from the vehicle (30) based on measured target vehicle and inter-vehicle speed, braking potential, inter-vehicle time and minimum marginal distance between the vehicles. Authorized lateral acceleration speed is calculated. A control speed of the vehicle (30) corresponding to a minimum speed defined between the observed, acceleration and displayed set point speed, is determined. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Method for controlling speed of a carrier vehicle i.e. lorry, that is displaced between vehicles moving in a same direction on a circulation path, in an adaptative cruise control system during dense traffic condition such as turning (claimed), insertion, removing, stopping, restarting and disappearance of the target vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The method permits to simply and automatically control speed of the carrier vehicle in an adaptative cruise control system during dense traffic conditions such as turning, insertion, releasing, stopping, restarting and disappearance of the target vehicle. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic representation illustrating a positioning of a carrier vehicle with respect to a target vehicle during insertion of the target vehicle in safety headway of the carrier vehicle. 30 : Carrier vehicle 31 : Target vehicle 32 : Vehicle distance 44 : Circulation path lateral distance 46, 47 : Circulation paths. |
