I am using the "Adpative Cruise Control System" under the library "Model Predictive Control Toolbox / Automated Driving".
I have only used Simulink a number of times so I may need references or a little more explation.
Basically, I have a problem in which I beleive this toolbox would be perfect for. I have two balls, the lead ball is going at a constant 26 [m/s] while the follower back is initially 6 [m] behind and going at 25.6 [m/s]. I want to create a system in which this follower ball stays matches the speed of the lead ball and maintains a distance of 6 [m].
I looked at numerous random examples for other simulink setups unrelated to this one, and I managed to compile this.
I want to see the velocity of the follower ball (and position) with respect to time, so I integrated the output acceleration and added this scope to see the results. I received wonky results in which my velocity actually decreased below the initial velocity which makes no sense as it should increase initially, then decrease to a value above the initial.
Can someone please take a look at this toolbox and help me design my problem set up? I am willing to read and learn. Once again, I have little experience with Simulink so please explain or add references!
Thank you for your time!
