Modified Trajectory Shaping Guidance for Autonomous Path Following Control of Platooning Ground Vehicles

This thesis proposes a modification of trajectory shaping guidance to provide more accurate path convergence in curved paths. The object of this thesis is to apply this simple guidance law to platooning control to ensure all vehicles in the platoon converge to a desired constant radius path at a desi...
