| Summary: | Path planning research plays a vital role in terms of safety and comfort in autonomous driving systems. This paper focuses on safe driving and comfort riding through path planning in autonomous driving applications and proposes autonomous driving path planning through an optimal controller integrating obstacle-dependent Gaussian (ODG) and model prediction control (MPC). The ODG algorithm integrates the information from the sensors and calculates the risk factors in the driving environment. The MPC function finds vehicle control signals close to the objective function under limited conditions, such as the structural shape of the vehicle and road driving conditions. The proposed method provides safe control and minimizes vehicle shaking due to the tendency to respond to avoid obstacles quickly. We conducted an experiment using mobile robots, similar to an actual vehicle, to verify the proposed algorithm performance. The experimental results show that the average safety metric is 72.34%, a higher ISO-2631 comport score than others, while the average processing time is approximately 14.2 ms/frame.
