الوصف: In recent decades, the automotive industry has moved towards the development of advanced driver assistance systems to enhance the comfort, safety, and energy saving of road vehicles. The increasing connection and communication between vehicles (V2V) and infrastructure (V2I) enables further opportunities for their optimisation and allows for additional features. Among others, vehicle platooning is the coordinated control of a set of vehicles moving at a short distance, one behind the other, to minimise aerodynamic losses, and it represents a viable solution to reduce the energy consumption of freight transport. To achieve this aim, a new generation of adaptive cruise control is required, namely, cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC). The present work aims to compare two CACC controllers applied to a platoon of heavy-duty electric trucks sharing the same linear spacing policy. A control technique based on reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm, with a deep deterministic policy gradient, and a classic linear quadratic control (LQC) are investigated. The comparative analysis of the two controllers evaluates the ability to track inter-vehicle distance and vehicle speed references during a standard driving cycle, the string stability, and the transient response when an unexpected obstacle occurs. Several performance indices (i.e., acceleration and jerk, battery state of charge, and energy consumption) are introduced as metrics to highlight the differences. By appropriately selecting the reward function of the RL algorithm, the analysed controllers achieve similar goals in terms of platoon dynamics, energy consumption, and string stability.
