Abstract

We present a concept of a flexible and modular architecture for intelligent cruise control (ICC). The architecture can be subdivided into three different processing steps: object-related analysis of sensor data, behavior-based scene interpretation and behavior planning. Each step works on collected sensor information as well as on a knowledge base, which can be broadened by external knowledge like GPS and street maps. An intelligent car following system is described in the paper as a spin-off for behavior planning
