A few years ago, representatives of 40 countries, led by Japan and the European Union,
expressed their desire for all new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles produced
from 2020 onwards to be equipped equipped with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
system. This proposal was made at the annual United Nations forum to respond to the
alarming increase in traffic accidents worldwide.
Studies carried out by the European New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP) and the
Australian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) have shown that installing AEB
systems in cars can reduce 38% of low-speed rear-end collisions. The European
Commission estimates that implementing this standard could prevent more than 1,000
deaths annually in the European Union.
In Vietnam, there are many highways, the maximum allowed speed is 120 km/h. Such
high travel speeds require very high demands from the braking system.
Therefore, the project I carried out "Modeling and simulating the automatic emergency
braking system (AEB) using Matlab/Simulink software" aims to build a general, easy-to-
use model of the automatic emergency braking system. Understand and refer to brake
accuracy during operation is affected by many different conditions and factors.
During the time of researching and implementing the project, I completed the proposed
tasks, I focused mainly on the following contents:
                                        Introduction
AEB stands for Automatic Emergency Braking. It is an advanced safety feature found in
modern vehicles that helps prevent or mitigate collisions. AEB uses sensors, such as
radar, cameras, or lasers, to monitor the road ahead and detect potential collisions with
other vehicles, pedestrians, or objects.
When the AEB system detects a potential collision, it first alerts the driver with visual
and audible warnings to encourage them to take action. If the driver fails to respond or
doesn't apply sufficient braking force, the AEB system automatically applies the vehicle's
brakes to either minimize the severity of the collision or prevent it altogether.
AEB systems typically operate at lower speeds, around 60 km/h (42 mph) or below, and
are most effective in situations where there is a high risk of rear-end collisions, such as in
heavy traffic or urban areas.
The installation of AEB systems in vehicles has proven to be effective in reducing the
occurrence and severity of collisions. Studies have shown that AEB can reduce rear-end
collisions by a significant percentage, especially at lower speeds. Therefore, many
countries and organizations are advocating for AEB to be a standard feature in all new
passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.
