The proposed scheme designs a collisionavoidance constraint setup that comprehensively coordinates dimension-based and velocity-dependent constraints to fulfil the safety criteria. A three-phase control framework is proposed for the overtaking task, subject to separate collision-avoidance constraints in lane changing, passing, and merging phases. Moreover, the proposed method utilises a Stackelberg game model to interactively involve the human-driven overtaken vehicle behaviours in the online optimisation loop. To further cope with uncertainties caused by the human driver, the optimisation is solved by a robust model predictive controller to guarantee the avoidance of collisions. Numerical case studies verify that the proposed framework is capable of overtaking not only a cooperative human-driven vehicle but also an uncooperative human-driven vehicle with safe and comfortable trajectories. date: 2024-07-01 date_type: published publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) official_url: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/home.jsp oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2262546 lyricists_name: Chen, Boli lyricists_id: BCHEB76 actors_name: Chen, Boli actors_id: BCHEB76 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public pres_type: paper publication: 22nd European Control Conference event_title: 22nd European Control Conference (ECC) event_dates: 25th-28th June 2024 book_title: Proceedings of the 22nd European Control Conference citation: Yu, Sheng; Chen, Boli; Jaimoukha, Imad M; Evangelou, Simos A; (2024) Game-Theoretic Model Predictive Control for Safety-Assured Autonomous Vehicle Overtaking in Mixed-Autonomy Environment.
