Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study of the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system, focusing on three essential testing phases: verifying the match between calculated and actual brake actuator operation time, validating the forecasted vs. real-time stabilized deceleration onset duration, and comparing the theoretically computed braking distance derived from mathematical models with its actual measurement. Standard instrumentation coupled with an original test procedure was utilized during the experiments. A full-scale experimental campaign was conducted on a specialized proving ground, thus substantiating the validity and robustness of the computational models used for assessing the AEB system parameters. The empirical outcomes confirmed that current-generation AEB systems offer dependable predictions regarding braking dynamics and exhibit prompt responsiveness to imminent collisions. However, it should be noted that variations in road conditions, driver behavior, and sensor precision may affect their performance. Consequently, additional efforts aimed at optimizing existing AEB solutions are required to minimize potential errors and enhance overall reliability. Finally, the significance of complying with design specifications and continuously upgrading AEB systems to meet evolving road safety standards is emphasized.
