Abstract
Highway automation requires intelligent vehicle control in longitudinal direction. In this paper linear and nonlinear controllers are presented for a dual task: that each vehicle in a convoy operates in a stable fashion, and that the platoon is string stable in longitudinal direction. For this analysis a convoy of five passenger cars is used.
