At present, many problems in traffic operation and safety occurs since there is no clear design criteria on designating the not-permitted entrance/exit section at curb areas within complex areas. Even, there is no specific and detailed researches on the not-permitted entrance/exit section by now. This research calculated the proper length of the entrance/exit section at curb areas by dividing the access not-permitted section into the two sections. First, the calculation of the entrance section was done by considering the location of crosswalks, stop line clearance, the queue length of vehicles approaching to second lanes, and marginal distance for safety have been considered. Second, the calculation of the exit section was done by comparing and analyzing the distance between cars of the entrance section according to the investigation point and the distance considering the location of crosswalks, the behavior of exit vehicles and the length of vehicles. In conclusion, by presenting the proper length in consideration of the traffic operation and safety on the access not-permitted section within complex areas, it can be used as a traffic safety improvement alternative and will be contributed in establishing and operating the proper installation criteria for the access not-permitted section within complex areas.

최근 자동차 산업의 발달로 후방카메라의 보급과 더불어 안전/보안 관련 제품이 출시되고 있다. 대부분의 후방카메라 설치는 많은 부품과 배선들이 들어간다는 단점이 있으며 배선이 길어질수록 노이즈가 발생한다. 본 연구는 차량의 후방을 감시하는 후방카메라에 관한 시스템으로 MOST 네트워크를 이용하여 설계하였다. 동기 및 비동기 데이터를 동시에 전송할 수 있는 MOST(Media Oriented Systems Transport) 네트워크는 최근 자동차 멀티미디어 시스템에 가장 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 통신 시스템이다. MOST150은 주로 링 형태로 연결되어지며 마스터 역할을 하는 장치가 반드시 하나 존재하고 여러 개의 슬레이브 장치들이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 MOST150 네트워크에서 차량용 카메라로부터 들어오는 영상을 적용하고, 광 케이블을 통해 노이즈 발생 및 배선의 복잡성을 줄여 운전자가 정확하고 실시간으로 원활한 영상 데이터를 얻을 수 있는 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.

In this paper, a novel turn signal indication scheme is proposed and implemented to handle the turn signal of a vehicle automatically. By adopting accelerometer for the motion recognition of vehicle's momentum, the proposed way could control and manage turn signals according to the moving direction of a car when a driver forgot handling turn signal lever. The designed control system is plugged into the motorbike and tested to demonstrate improved driver's safety suitable for ADAS.

자동차 산업은 관련 기술의 진전과 함께 비약적인 발전을 거듭하여 신뢰성 및 안정성의 확보뿐만 아니라, 운전자의 편리성과 같은 새로운 기능 구현을 위한 연구개발이 가속화되고 있다. 최근 각종 텔레매틱스 서비스를 위해 차량 내 기능의 신뢰성과 성능을 향상시키기 위한 자동 조절의 필요성이 증가하고 있으며, 각종 기능에 대한 전자통신 시스템을 사용한 제어 및 네트워크의 통합화가 급속히 이루어지고 있다. 따라서 CAN(Controller Area Network)과 같은 네트워크 개념의 도입으로 차내 전선사용의 감소뿐만 아니라 제어 및 고장의 진단을 용이하게 하고 차량 내 안전성의 개선 및 자동차 품질과 비용 절감을 기대할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 CAN Protocol을 분석하고 차량 내 제어 데이터 전송을 위해 CAN을 통한 통신 시스템을 구현 및 검증하였다.

A vehicle cruise control algorithm using an Interacting Multiple Model (IMM)-based Multi-Target Tracking (MTT) method has been presented in this paper. The vehicle cruise control algorithm consists of three parts; track estimator using IMM-Probabilistic Data Association Filter (PDAF), a primary target vehicle determination algorithm and a single-target adaptive cruise control algorithm. Three motion models; uniform motion, lane-change motion and acceleration motion, have been adopted to distinguish large lateral motions from longitudinal motions. The models have been validated using simulated and experimental data. The improvement in the state estimation performance when using three models is verified in target tracking simulations. The performance and safety benefits of a multi-model-based MTT-ACC system is investigated via simulations using real driving radar sensor data. These simulations show system response that is more realistic and reflective of actual human driving behavior.

The center of gravity on vehicle is a fundamentally important point for assessing and measuring the characteristics of vehicle dynamics. Especially, the center of gravity height on vehicles is the closest factor with respect to rollover accidents in a social issue nowadays. In this paper, the center of gravity height in conjunction with vehicle parameters of vehicle weight, driving axle and roof height after measured by vehicle weight and loading location by means of VCGM developed by KATRI with good performance that the accuracy was less than 0.6% and repeatability 0.3% for vehicles being used in the whole world was observed. As a result of study, the location of center of gravity height on vehicle was able to be estimated with only roof height on vehicle.

Vehicle stability is a very important subject in vehicle design and control, because vehicle safety is closely dependent upon its dynamic stability. For the vehicle stability analysis, the nonlinear vehicle model of a mid-size car with three DOF - longitudinal, lateral and yaw - is employed. A rigorous method is used to determine the vehicle stability region in plane motion. An algorithm is used to materialize a topology theorem, which enables to find the exact stability region. A stability criterion for the critical cornering is proposed.
