Speed control system and speed control method for curved road section

Abstract

Disclosed is a speed control system for a curved road section, which includes: a wireless communication module that supports communication with road-side units and receives road information from the road-side units for a plurality of points on a curved road adjacent to the road-side units; an allowable speed calculation unit that calculates maximum allowable speeds that are the highest speeds at which a vehicle is driven, for the plurality of points, using the road information; an optimum speed calculation unit that calculates an optimum speed in an acceleration and deceleration range that is set in consideration of a predetermined acceleration and deceleration limit of the vehicle; and a control module that displays the optimum speed calculated by the optimum speed calculation unit to the outside, or provides the calculated optimum speed to another control system in the vehicle such that the speed of the vehicle is controlled.
