The vehicle driving force control apparatus includes a target driving force computing component (1, 101, 201) that is configured to calculate a target driving force. The vehicle driving force control apparatus further includes a zone attribute detecting co...

A method is disclosed for controlling a vehicle, said vehicle having a cruise control system (1) being connected with a position input connection (5), for receiving vehicle position information from a positioning system (11), a map database (3), a driver i...

A process for the control and/or regulation of motor vehicle speed combines cruise control and automatic braking such that the velocities of each and any offset between them are dynamically adjusted in respect of target values.

The present invention relates to the integration of an on-board navigation system to provide energy management for an electric vehicle (EV)or a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). A vehicle system controller 46 integrates the navigation system information with ...

Up-to-date defined routes (A) equal a course of routes determined and corrected by map matching. General map matching quality can be determined by evaluating a single-dimensional correlation to use map matching to produce the right quality for matching dow...

The method involves determining a motorway exit (4) probability when controlling the longitudinal movement based on a predetermined desired distance (dsoll) to a previous vehicle (1) using information of the navigation systems. Longitudinal acceleration is...

The probability of a vehicle entering a high-way is determined based on the roadway information obtained from the navigation system of the vehicle. The longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle is set to be greater than that during regular operation, when t...
