Vehicular Platoon System Design: Fundamentals and Robustness provides a comprehensive introduction to connected and automated vehicular platoon system design. Platoons decrease the distances between cars or trucks using electronic, and possibly mechanical, coupling. This capability allows many cars or trucks to accelerate or brake simultaneously. It also allows for a closer headway between vehicles by eliminating reacting distance needed for human reaction. The book considers the key issues of robustness and cybersecurity, with optimization-based model predictive control schemes applied to control vehicle platoon.In the controller design part, several practical problems, such as constraint handling, optimal control performance, robustness against disturbance, and resilience against cyberattacks are reviewed. In addition, the book provides detailed theoretical analysis of the stability of the platoon under different control schemes. - Provides a comprehensive introduction to the state-of-the-art development of connected and automated vehicular platoon systems - Covers the advanced, robust and stochastic model predictive control algorithm design methods for constraint handling and robustness improvement - Introduces rigorous theoretical stability analysis from the robust tube-based distributedMPC (Model Predictive Control) and stochastic tube-based distributed MPC perspectives - Offers various filter-based inter-vehicle attack detection methods and event-based resilient vehicle platoon control design methods

Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) or platooning recently becomes promising as vehicles can learn of nearby vehicles' intentions and dynamics through wireless vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication and advanced on-board sensing technologies. The complexity of automated ve-hicle platoon system opens doors to various malicious cyber attacks. Violation of cybersecurity often results in serious safety issues as been demonstrated in recent studies. However, safety and security in a vehicle platoon so far have been considered separately by different sets of experts. Consequently no existing solution solves both safety and security in a coherent way. In this paper, we show cyber attacks on an automated platoon system could have the most severe level of safety impact with large scale car crash and argue the importance of safety-security co-design for safety critical cyber physical systems (CPS). We propose a safety-security co-design engineering process to derive functional security requirements for a safe automated vehicle platoon system based on a deep comprehension on the interrelation of safety and security. To our best knowledge, we are the first to apply the safety-security co-design concept to a concrete application. Through this engineering process, we propose a general approach for designing a safe and secure platooning. Following the general approach, we come up with a new platoon control algorithm that takes into account both safety and security. Our defense mechanism implicitly defends against safety-related cyber-attacks and greatly shortens the safe distance required when the platoon is not protected.
