Abstract

Two extensions of a previously published work on the determination of an optimal controller for a string of moving vehicles are presented. It is shown that the revised system is more effective than the previously proposed system, especially with regard to passenger comfort because it takes into account jerk, the rate of change of acceleration and deceleration.
