Abstract
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method and system for controlling vehicle deceleration are provided. The method includes determining a speed of the vehicle, and setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed determined. The system includes a receiver capable of receiving an input signal indicative of a speed of the vehicle, and a controller capable of setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed.
Claims10
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method for controlling vehicle deceleration, the method comprising:
- determining a speed of the vehicle;
- and
- setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed determined, wherein setting the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration comprises decreasing the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration as the vehicle speed increases.
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method for controlling vehicle deceleration, the method comprising:
- determining a speed of the vehicle;
- and
- setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed determined, wherein setting the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration comprises increasing the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration as the vehicle speed decreases.
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method for controlling vehicle deceleration, the method comprising:
- determining a speed of the vehicle;
- and
- setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed determined, wherein the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration varies in a range between about 0.2 g and 0.3 g.
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method for controlling vehicle deceleration, the method comprising:
- determining a speed of the vehicle;
- and
- setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed determined, wherein the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration is an exponential function of the vehicle speed.
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a system for controlling vehicle deceleration, the system comprising:
- a receiver for receiving an input signal indicative of a speed of the vehicle;
- and
- a controller for setting a maximum allowed vehicle deceleration based on the vehicle speed, wherein, to set the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration, the controller is operative to decrease the maximum allowed vehicle deceleration as the vehicle speed increases.
