CONTROL DEVICE FOR AUTONOMOUS DRIVING VEHICLE

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240409120 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE FOR AUTONOMOUS DRIVING VEHICLE

Original Abstract Submitted

a control device for causing a vehicle to travel by autonomous driving based on a target path calculated based on a current position on map data of a vehicle estimated by a map data, a behavior detection sensor, and an external detection sensor, wherein a current position of the vehicle is estimated by correcting a position on map data of the vehicle in accordance with a relative position of the vehicle on a roadway, a correction amount at that time is obtained, a change in a correction amount is predicted by map data and an external detection sensor, and a control gain in a control input when the vehicle is caused to travel by autonomous driving is changed in accordance with the change, thereby changing a characteristic of the traveling control.
