자율주행 과실 여부 판단 위한 방법으로 수학적인 모형인 responsibility-sensitive safety(RSS)를 제시된 이후로 자율주행 관련 산업으로부터 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 수학적 모형이 자율주행자동차가 관련된 교통사고 발생 시 책임소재를 명확히 하는 데 활용될 수 있는 지에 대한 종합적인 검토는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 RSS 모형의 적용성과 활용을 위해서 추가적으로 해결되어야 할 사항에 대하여 분석하였다. 결론적으로 RSS 모형을 활용하기에는 모형식 자체 및 수용성 등에 한계가 있으며, RSS 모형을 실무적으로 사용하려고 한다면 자율주행자동차의 반응시간을 정의하고, 자율주행자동차별로 적절한 기술수준에 따라서 반응시간 값을 측정하고 관리할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

최근 자동차 산업은 자율주행자동차로 인해 빠르게 변화하고 있고 관련된 연구 또한 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 하지만 자율주행자동차의 기술에 관한 연구가 대부분이며, 도로교통 안전과 관련한 변화 예측과 개선방안에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 자율주행자동차의 도입에 따른 사업용 차량 도로교통 안전사업의 개선방안 제시와 우선순위 도출을 목적으로 수행하였다. 자율주행자동차 전문가를 대상으로 한 설문조사 결과와 AHP를 이용하여 분석한 결과 교통수단안전점검 법령 개정, 자율주행자동차 운전자 및 운영자 등에 대한 교육제도 개발 등이 가장 우선시 되어야 할 것으로 분석되었다.

This paper describes the development of the $H_{\infty}$ lateral control system for an autonomous ground vehicle operating a limited area using the RTK-DGPS(Real Time Kinematic-Differential Global Positioning System). Before engaging in autonomous driving, map data are acquired by the RTK-DGPS and used to construct a reference trajectory. The navigation system contains the map data and computes the reference yaw angle of the vehicle using two consecutive position values. The yaw angle of the vehicle is controlled by the $H_{\infty}$ controller. A prototype of the autonomous vehicle by the navigation method has been developed, and the performance of the vehicle has been evaluated by experiment. The experimental results show that the $H_{\infty}$ controller and the RTK-DGPS based navigation system can sufficiently track the map at low speed. We expect that this navigation system can be made more accurate by incorporating additional sensors.

Path tracking of unmanned vehicle is a basis of autonomous driving and navigation. For the path tracking, it is very important to find the exact position of a vehicle. GPS is used to get the position of vehicle and a direction sensor and a velocity sensor is used to compensate the position error of GPS. To detect path lines in a road image, the bird's eye view transform is employed, which makes it easy to design a lateral control algorithm simply than from the perspective view of image. Because the driving speed of vehicle should be decreased at a curved lane and crossroads, so we suggest the speed control algorithm used GPS and image data. The control algorithm is simulated and experimented from the basis of expert driver's knowledge data. In the experiments, the results show that bird's eye view transform are good for the steering control and a speed control algorithm also shows a stability in real driving.

This paper presents to study the path tracking method of AGV(autonomous guided vehicle) which has a laser guidance system. An existing automatic guided vehicles(AGVs) which were able to drive on wired line only had a automatic guidance system. However, the automatic guidance systems that those used had the high cost of installation and maintenance, and the difficulty of system change according to variation of working environment. To solve such problems, we make the laser guidance system which is consisted of a laser navigation and gyro, encoder. That is robust against noise, and flexible according to working environment through sensor fusion. The laser guidance system can do a perfect autonomous driving. However, the commercialization of perfect autonomous driving system is difficult, because the perfect autonomous driving system must recognize the whole environment of working space. Hence, this paper studied the path tracking of AGV using laser guidance system without wired line. The path tracking method is consisted of virtual path generation method and driving control method. To experiment, we use the fork-type AGV which is made by ourselves, and do a path tracking experiments repeatedly on same experimental environment. In result, we verified that proposed system is efficient and stable for actual fork-type AGV.

Autonomous driving is no longer atechnology of the future since the development of autonomous vehicles has now been realized, and many technologies have already been developed for the convenience of drivers. For example, autonomous vehicles are one of the most important drive assistant systems. Among these many drive assistant systems, Cruise Control Systems are now a typical technology. This system constantly maintains a vehicle's speed and distance from a vehicle in front by using Radar or LiDAR sensors in real time. Cruise Control Systems do not only serve their original role, but also fulfill another role as a 'Driving Safety' measure as they can detect a situation that a driver did not predict and can intervene by assuming a vehicle's longitude control. However, these systems have the limitation of only focusing on driver safety. Therefore, in this paper, an Intelligent Cruise Control System that utilizes the path planning method and GIS is proposed to overcome some existing limitations.

자율주행차량(AV)의 기술 발전으로 실도로 내 자율주행이 가능해졌지만, 주변 요소로 AV의 인지 범위 또는 능력이 제한되는 인지 음영으로 완전한 자율주행에 어려움이 있다. 오늘날 Lv 4+ 자율주행 테스트 시나리오를 개발하기 위해서는 실제 도로에서 발생할 수 있는 다양한 인지 음영 상황을 파악하고 대비 전략을 구상하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서, 본 연구는 미국 캘리포니아 차량관리국(DMV)의 AV 사고 데이터를 통해 자율주행 모드 활성화 여부에 따라 AV와 일반차량의 사고 형태와 특성을 비교하고, AV 제어권 전환 데이터를 단계적으로 분류하여 인지 음영으로 인한 제어권 전환의 유형과 실제 사례를 도출하였다. 분석 결과, AV의 안전 운전 기동으로 일반 차량과 다른 사고 유형이 나타났으며, 3가지 유형의 인지 음영 사례를 파악하였다. 본 연구 결과는 Lv 4+ 자율주행 테스트 시나리오 개발의 중요한 기초자료가 될 것이며, 다양한 인지 음영이 고려된 테스트 시나리오를 통해 상황별 인지 음영을 해소하는 효율적인 전략을 마련할 수 있다. 이를 통해 실제 도로에서의 AV 주행 안전성을 효과적으로 평가하고 향상할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

For the acceleration and brake systems of an autonomous vehicle, the dynamic models from acceleration (brake) pedal input to driving(braking) torque at the vehicle wheel are represented by a set of linear transfer functions in this paper. We present an experimental method that can identify these models using a single rectangular pulse response data. Various magnitude of inputs with different running speeds are applied to experimental tests. All the identified models are demonstrated by the measured data. Both acceleration and brake models have been also validated by comparing the velocity of a full vehicle model associated with the proposed models with the measured vehicle velocity.

Recent developments in robotics and intelligent vehicle area, bring interests of people in an autonomous driving ability and advanced driving assistance system. Especially fully automatic parking ability is one of the key issues of intelligent vehicles, and accurate parked vehicles detection is essential for this issue. In previous researches, many types of sensors are used for detecting vehicles, 2D LiDAR is popular since it offers accurate range information without preprocessing. The L shape feature is most popular 2D feature for vehicle detection, however it has an ambiguity on different objects such as building, bushes and this occurs misdetection problem. Therefore we propose the accurate vehicle detection method by using a 3D complete vehicle model in 3D point clouds acquired from front inclined 2D LiDAR. The proposed method is decomposed into two steps: vehicle candidate extraction, vehicle detection. By combination of L shape feature and point clouds segmentation, we extract the objects which are highly related to vehicles and apply 3D model to detect vehicles accurately. The method guarantees high detection performance and gives plentiful information for autonomous parking. To evaluate the method, we use various parking situation in complex urban scene data. Experimental results shows the qualitative and quantitative performance efficiently.

As a result, attack vectors of such vehicles increasing, and security threats further expanding. Currently, various solutions for vehicle security are being developed and applied, but the damage caused by cyber attacks is still increasing. In recent years, vehicles such as the Tesla Model S and Mitsubishi Outlander have been hacked and remotely controlled by an attacker. Therefore, there is a need for advanced security technologies to cope with increasingly intelligent and sophisticated automotive cyber attacks. In this article, we introduce the latest trends of autonomous vehicles and their security threats, as well as the current status and issues of security technologies to cope with them.
