    A Hierarchical Control System for Autonomous Driving Towards Urban Challenges

    applied sciences Article A Hierarchical Control System for Autonomous Driving towards Urban Challenges Nam Dinh Van , Muhammad Sualeh , Dohyeong Kim and Gon-Woo Kim *,† Intelligent Robotics Laboratory, Department of Control and Robot Engineering, Chungbuk National University, Cheongju-si 28644, Korea; [email protected] (N.D.V.); [email protected] (M.S.); [email protected] (D.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] † Current Address: Chungdae-ro 1, Seowon-Gu, Cheongju, Chungbuk 28644, Korea. Received: 23 April 2020; Accepted: 18 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: In recent years, the self-driving car technologies have been developed with many successful stories in both academia and industry. The challenge for autonomous vehicles is the requirement of operating accurately and robustly in the urban environment. This paper focuses on how to efficiently solve the hierarchical control system of a self-driving car into practice. This technique is composed of decision making, local path planning and control. An ego vehicle is navigated by global path planning with the aid of a High Definition map. Firstly, we propose the decision making for motion planning by applying a two-stage Finite State Machine to manipulate mission planning and control states. Furthermore, we implement a real-time hybrid A* algorithm with an occupancy grid map to find an efficient route for obstacle avoidance. Secondly, the local path planning is conducted to generate a safe and comfortable trajectory in unstructured scenarios. Herein, we solve an optimization problem with nonlinear constraints to optimize the sum of jerks for a smooth drive. In addition, controllers are designed by using the pure pursuit algorithm and the scheduled feedforward PI controller for lateral and longitudinal direction, respectively.

'A large proportion (of car accidents) could be avoided by using self-driving vehicles' Hussein Dia, chair of Civil Engineering at Swinburne University of Technology ' If we see children distracted by the ice cream truck across the street, we know to slow down, as they may dash toward it. Today's computers aren't nearly as skilled at interpreting complex situations like these' Andrew Ng, director of Baidu's Institute of Deep Learning The issue at a glance On November 29, 2017, it was announced that Perth would be one of the first cities in the world to test fully-automated vehicles in 2018. The city will trial driverless hire cars capable of picking up passengers. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-11-29/uber-style-driverless-cars-to-be-tested-in- perth-in-global-trial/9207120 The year before, in August 2016, Perth began trialling Australia's first driverless shuttle bus along the foreshore in South Perth. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-08-31/driverless-bus-trialed-in- south-perth/7802976 The technology is proving attractive to other Australian states and territories who are already making changes to road laws to ready themselves for trials of automated vehicles. https://www.ntc.gov.au/current-projects/changing-driving-laws-to-support-automated-vehicles/ However, a range of analysts have suggested the enthusiasm for automated vehicles is premature and that the new technology will be more problematic than many realise.
