As the ageing population grows around the world, the demand for electric wheelchairs, an important mobility assistance device for the disabled and elderly, is gradually increasing. Therefore, a number of studies related to intelligent wheelchairs are actively underway to improve safety and comfort for wheelchair users. However, previous collision avoidance studies for intelligent wheelchairs have concentrated on collision avoidance methods with the shortest distance and by only changing either velocity or heading angle, rather than considering the forces exerted on the user. If a collision avoidance algorithm that does not consider these forces is applied to an intelligent wheelchair, there is a possibility of an accident due to falling as wheelchair users are generally disabled and elderly people. In this paper, we propose a collision avoidance algorithm which minimizes the forces exerted on a wheelchair user by minimizing the variation of the wheelchair's velocity and heading angle when the sizes, positions, velocities, and heading angles of a wheelchair and a moving obstacle are known.

우리나라 정부는 해양사고의 주요 원인으로 지목되는 인적과실에 의한 해양사고를 저감하고자 선박의 충돌예방 지원을 위한 지능형해상교통정보서비스를 개발하였으며, 2021년 1월부터 대국민 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 지능형 해상교통정보서비스의 제공은 디지털 통신을 기반으로 한 안전정보의 실시간 제공이라는 점에서 그 자체로 의미가 있으나, 각 선박에 최적화된 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 개별 선박의 운항특성을 고려하는 등 보다 발전될 부분이 있는 것으로 생각한다. 이번 연구에서는 지능형 해상교통정보서비스의 하나인 충돌예방 지원서비스의 제공현황을 살펴보고 사용성 및 효용성을 높이기 위해 고려되어야 할 점을 식별하였다. 마지막으로 데이터과학, 인공지능(AI) 등 최신기술의 적용을 통한 서비스의 발전방향을 제시하였다.

This paper describes a coordinated control algorithm for rear-side collision avoidance. In order to assist driver actively and increase driver's safety, the proposed coordinated control algorithm is designed to combine lateral control using a steering torque overlay by Motor Driven Power Steering (MDPS) and differential braking by Vehicle Stability Control (VSC). The main objective of a combined control strategy is twofold. The one is to prevent the collision between the subject vehicle and approaching vehicle in the adjacent lanes. The other is to limit actuator's control inputs and vehicle dynamics to safe values for the assurance of the driver's comfort. In order to achieve these goals, the Lyapunov theory and LMI optimization methods has been employed. The proposed coordinated control algorithm for rear-side collision avoidance has been evaluated via simulation using CarSim and MATLAB/Simulink.

Recently a traffic accident of heavy duty vehicles under the mandatory installation of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) is often reported in the media. Heavy duty vehicle accidents are normally occurring a high number of passenger's injury. According to report of Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, FCW (Forward Collision Warning) and AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking) were associated with a statistically significant 12% reduction in the rate of police-reportable crashes per vehicle miles traveled, and a significant 41% reduction in the rear-end crash rate of large trucks. Also many countries around the world, including Korea, are studying the effects of ADAS installation on accident reduction. Traffic accident statistics of passenger vehicle for business purpose in TMACS (Traffic safety information Management Complex System in Korea) tends to remarkably reduce the number of deaths due to the accident (2017(211), 2018(170), 2019(139)), but the number of traffic accidents (2017(8,939), 2018(9,181), 2019(10,095)) increases. In this paper, it is introduced a traffic accident case that could lead to high injury traffic accidents by being equipped with AEB in a bus. AEB reduces accidents and damage in general but malfunction of AEB could occur severe accident. Therefore, proper education is required to use AEB system, simply instead of focusing on developing and installing AEB to prevent traffic accidents. Traffic accident of AEB equipped vehicle may arise a new dispute between a driver's fault and vehicle defect. It is highly recommended to regulate an advanced event data recorder system.

In the automotive industry, the development of automobiles to meet safety requirements is becoming increasingly complex. This is because quality evaluation agencies in each country are continually strengthening new safety standards for vehicles. Among these various requirements, collision safety must be satisfied by controlling airbags, seat belts, etc., and can be defined as post-crash safety. Apart from this safety system, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) use advanced detection sensors, GPS, communication, and video equipment to detect the hazard and notify driver before the collision. However, research to improve passenger safety in case of an accident by using the sensor of active safety represented by ADAS in the existing passive safety is limited to the level that utilizes the sudden braking level of the FCA (Forward Collision-avoidance Assist) system. Therefore, this study aims to develop logic that can improve passenger protection in case of an accident by using ADAS information and driving information secured before a collision. The proposed logic was constructed based on LSTM deep learning techniques and trained using crash test data.

FMCW Radar sensor is commonly used for an automobile collision avoidance system for rider's safe. Systems using FMCW radar, however, would be one of expensive solutions for just simple rear obstacle detection purpose due to its high cost. In this letter, a short range rear obstacle detector using novel 24GHz AM radar sensor is presented. It can be implemented at significantly lower cost than FMCW radar for practical commercialization. The proposed AM radar sensor module is fabricated in a single aluminum housing to reduce the overall size while using single power supply voltage of 12V with 1200mA current for automotive applications. The measured detection range is up to 210cm with 10cm of distance resolution, which is suitable for a parking assistance system for automobiles.

기존의 첨단 운전자 지원 시스템 (Advanced Driver Assistance System, ADAS)들은 전방 위험탐지와 같은 한정적 상황에서의 사고 예방에 집중하고 있어 다양한 사고 시나리오가 존재하는 교차로에 적용하기에는 한계를 가지고 있다. 또한 기존 연구는 주로 사고 요인 분석에 집중하고 있어 첨단 운전자 지원 시스템의 사고 예방 성능에 관한 연구는 미비한 편이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 비전 및 레이더 센서 기반 첨단 운전자 지원 시스템의 다양한 교차로 사고 예방에 대한 성능을 평가하고 대책을 마련하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 미국의 Second Strategic Highway Research Program(SHRP2)의 naturalistic driving study(NDS)에서 수집된 사고/준사고 상황의 거리 측정 데이터를 기반으로 16개의 교차로 사고 시나리오를 도출하였고, 총 363건의 차량과 차량 간 사고를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 16개의 사고 시나리오 중 0.7의 사고 예방율을 기준으로 카메라 기반 시스템은 5개, 레이더 기반 시스템은 4개의 사고 시나리오에서 사고를 예방할 수 있었다.

90년대 교통 시설의 이용효율성 및 안전을 제고하고자 ITS가 도입되었다. 최근 정보통신기술의 발달로 인해 첨단차량 및 도로에 대한 관심이 급증하고 있다. 차량제어모형 중 차로변경모형은 중요한 요소이지만 기존의 연구에서는 대상차량이 등속주행 상황에서 차로변경 여부를 판단하므로 실제적용에 한계성을 가진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 차로변경 시 대상차량의 가감속을 통해 주위차량 간 안전성을 판단하여 차로변경을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 차로변경모형의 적합성을 검증하고자 시나리오별 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 수행 결과, 목표차로의 선행차량을 추월하여 현차로의 선행차량과의 차간거리가 안전거리 이상이면 차로변경을 하였다. 또한, 현차로의 선행차량과의 차간거리가 안전거리 이하이면 목표차로의 선행차량, 후행차량과의 차간거리를 고려하여 차로변경을 적절히 수행하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 차로변경 모형은 안전주행 지원시스템, 자동운행시스템에 활용되어 첨단차량 및 첨단도로 시스템 분야 발전에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

With the development of autonomous driving technology, as the use of software in vehicles increases, the complexity of the system increases and the difficulty of development increases. Developments that meet ISO 26262 must be carried out to reduce the malfunctions that may occur in vehicles where the system is becoming more complex. ISO 26262 for the functional safety of the vehicle industry proposes to consider functional safety from the design stage to all stages of development. Specifically at the software level, the requirements to be complied with during development and the requirements to be complied with during verification are defined. However, it is not clearly expressed about specific design methods or development methods, and it is necessary to supplement development guidelines. The importance of analysis and verification of requirements is increasing due to the development of technology and the increase of system complexity. The vehicle industry must carry out developments that meet functional safety requirements while carrying out various development activities. We propose a process that reflects the perspective of system engineering to meet the smooth application and developmentrequirements of ISO 26262. In addition, the safety analysis/verification FMEA processforthe safety of the proposed ISO 26262 function was conducted based on the FCAS (Forward Collision Avoidance Assist System) function applied to autonomous vehicles and the results were confirmed. In addition, the safety analysis/verification FMEA process for the safety of the proposed ISO 26262 function was conducted based on the FCAS (Forward Collision Avoidance Assist System) function applied to the advanced driver assistance system and the results were confirmed.
