Abstract

This study proposes a platoon control system to detect relative position of vehicle-to-vehicle using moving base RTK and vehicle-to-vehicle communication. This study aims to develop method of high-accuracy observing inter-vehicle relative position without fixed base station, and high-density platoon system. The proposed method uses Moving Base RTK-GPS, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication. The vehicle-to-vehicle communication shares GPS correction signal of all RTK-GPS receivers, so they can obtain each other's relative position without distinguishing a base station and a rover station. In this paper, the proposed measuring method is explained; the platoon control system using proposed measuring method is mentioned; and the validation of experiment using electric light vehicles is reported.
