Development and Validation of Autonomous Emergency Braking System for Advanced Driver Assistance Application

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) have become a popular trend in modern vehicles providing essential information for the driver and implementing safer driving decisions. There are various features in the ADAS system that helps in its ADAS functionality. In this paper, a popular ADAS feature called Autonomous emergency braking (AEB) is presented. AEB is one such ADAS feature incorporated in vehicles that applies brake automatically when there is an obstacle detected near in front. The algorithm is developed using Simulink®. The system uses sensor fusion output of radio detection and ranging (RADAR) and a camera sensor for accurately identifying the obstacle in front of the vehicle. Different EURO NCAP based scenarios are created and the control algorithm is validated.
