Abstract

Driving Assistances aim at enhancing the driver safety and the comfort. Nowadays, the consumption is also a major criterion which must be integrated in the driving assistances. Then, we propose to redefine the behavior of an ACC with energy efficiency consideration to perform a Smart and Green ACC. We apply our development to the specific use case of the electric vehicle that allows regenerative braking. The ACC, once activated, operates under two possible modes (speed control and headway spacing control). We define the behavior of the driving assistance under these both possible modes, focusing on the distance control. We present the efficiency of various strategies without trading off safety. We conclude on the efficiency by presenting several use cases that show the SAGA behavior.
