Abstract
The automation of the overtaking maneuver is considered to be one of the toughest challenges in the development of autonomous vehicles. This operation involves two vehicles (the overtaking and the overtaken) driving cooperatively, as well as the surveillance of any other vehicles involved in the maneuver. This operation consists of two lane changes: one from the right to the left lane of the road and the other to return to the right lane after passing. Lane change maneuvers have been used to move into or out of a circulation lane or platoon, but overtaking operations have not received much coverage in the literature. In this paper we present an overtaking system for autonomous vehicles equipped with path tracking and lane change capabilities. The system uses fuzzy controllers that mimic human behavior and reactions during overtaking maneuvers. The system is based on the information supplied by a high-precision GPS system and a wireless network environment. It is able to drive an automated vehicle and overtake a second vehicle that is driving in the same lane of the road.
