Title
A path generation for automated vehicle based on Bezier curve and via-points
Abstract
This paper presents a path generation method for automated vehicle based on Bezier curve. Derivation of smooth path is one of important subjects for vehicle navigation system. Bezier curve is a smooth parametric curve, but adequate assignment of its control points that determine the shape of Bezier curve is not a simple problem. In the proposed method, first n th-order base Bezier curve in N -dimension is derived with the end point constraints (location and velocity). As a next step, path modification is done by using constrained optimization with designated via-points. The presented method is tested by several calculation experiments in case of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional path. The results are shown and discussed in this paper. A path design method based on Bezier curve.Path satisfies the endpoint restrictions and passes through designated via-points.A base Bezier curve can be derived based on the endpoints restrictions.Constrained optimization approach is introduced to modify the base Bezier curve to pass through the designated via-points.Path generation results are verified by the computer simulations.
