Recently, the demand for a PRT(Personal Rapid Transit) system based on autonomous navigation is increasing. Accordingly, the applicability investigations of the PRT system on rail tracks or roadways have been widely studied. In the case of unmanned vehicle operations without physical guideways on roadways, to monitor the position of the vehicle in real time is very important for stable, robust and reliable guidance of an autonomous vehicle. The Global Positioning System (GPS) has been commercially used for vehicle positioning. However, it cannot be applied in environments as tunnels or interiors of buildings. The PRT navigation system based on magnetic markers reference sensing that can overcome these environmental restrictions and the vehicle dynamics model for its H/W configuration are presented in this study. In addition, the design of a control S/W dedicated for unmanned operation of a PRT vehicle and its prototype implementation for experimental validation on a pilot network were successfully achieved.

This paper presents a near-minimum time path planning algorithm for autonomous driving. The problem of near-minimum time path planning is an optimization problem in which it is necessary to take into account not only the geometry of the circuit but also the dynamics of the vehicle. The path planning algorithm consists of a candidate path generation and a velocity optimization algorithm. The candidate path generation algorithm calculates the compromises between the shortest path and the path that allows the highest speeds to be achieved. The velocity optimization algorithm calculates the lap time of each candidate considering the vehicle driving performance and tire friction limit. By using the calculated path and velocity of each candidate, we calculate the lap times and search for a near-minimum time path. The proposed algorithm was evaluated via computer simulation using CarSim and Matlab/Simulink.

This paper proposes a local path planning method for stable autonomous driving in rough terrain. There are various path planning techniques such as candidate paths, star algorithm, and Rapidly-exploring Random Tree algorithms. However, such existing path planning has limitations to reflecting the stability of unmanned ground vehicles. This paper suggest a path planning algorithm that considering the stability of unmanned ground vehicles. The algorithm is based on the genetic algorithm and assumes to have probability based obstacle map and elevation map. The simulation result show that the proposed algorithm can be used for real-time local path planning in rough terrain.

In this paper, we present signal processing procedure and carry out performance analysis of FMCW(Frequency Modulation Continuous Wave) radar for Autonomous Unmanned Vehicle(AUV). In order to detect range profile and velocity of the unknown target, we must implement two step FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) procedure. And the DBF(Digital Beam Forming) algorithm has to be performed to obtain the angle information of the unknown target. To verify the performance of manufactured autonomous unmanned ground vehicle FMCW radar, we use the data of the real corner reflecter target.

In recent years, much attention has been paid to the development of intelligent vehicles that integrate automotive technology into the information technology, with the aim of improving user friendliness and stability. The representative function is a autonomous driving and a cruise control. In designing such vehicles, it is critical to address the real-time issues (i.e., real-time vehicle control and timely response). However, previous research excluded the real-time scheduling. We develop a model car with unmanned cruise control, design the real-time scheduler using cyclic executive to easily adapt the model car, and provide some insight into potential solutions based on various experiments.

Recently, it is widely progressed that the research of the performance improvement of an intelligent vehicle. Among them, its parking problem has attracted a great deal of attention and have been examined in many papers in the literature. In this paper we design a fuzzy logic based parking system at the slant parking space which is a important part for designing an autonomous parking system. We first design a parking path for the slant space and propose a fuzzy logic based parking algorithm. We present its simulation results and show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
