Abstrak
In this paper, we propose an optimization framework for cooperative merging of platoons of connected and automated vehicles at highway on-ramps. The framework includes (1) an optimal scheduling algorithm, through which, each platoon derives the sequence and time to enter the highway safely, and (2) an optimal control algorithm that allows each platoon to derive its optimal control input (acceleration/deceleration) in terms of fuel consumption. We evaluate the efficacy of the proposed optimization framework through VISSIM-MATLAB simulation environment. The proposed framework significantly reduces the crossing time and fuel consumption of platoons at the highway on-ramps.
