Abstract:
This study addresses the challenges and solutions for achieving flexible and resilient platooning in Intelligent and Connected Vehicles (ICVs) under diverse constraints. We focus on enabling vehicles to freely join or leave the platoon and maintaining resilience against adversarial cyberattacks within the network. We propose a hierarchical distributed coordination framework that combines high-level event-driven cluster coordination with lower-level decoupled longitudinal and lateral control designs. Each normal vehicle updates its longitudinal state by solving a distributed optimization-based control problem, utilizing both itself and neighboring vehicles’ information. Meanwhile, the lateral control scheme employs a decentralized optimization algorithm to facilitate lane-changing coordination. Additionally, we develop a distributed attack detection algorithm that enables the identification and removal of adversarial vehicles from the platoon. The stability of the closed-loop system is proven, and simulation results validate the effectiveness of our framework in achieving flexible and resilient vehicle platooning.
