Approaches for top speed dependent operational parameter configuration are disclosed. An operational parameter to be used by an autonomous vehicle is received. Operational modes and corresponding operational regions are determined based on the received operational parameter. A first set of autonomous vehicle parameters are determined and set based on the received operational parameter. A second set of autonomous vehicle parameters are determined and set based on the first set of autonomous vehicle parameters.

Maximum speed dependent parameter management for autonomous vehicles

Approaches to managing navigation of autonomous vehicles through minor-major intersections are disclosed. A minor-major intersection is detected. Shadow tracks are generated for occlusions associated with the minor-major intersection. A maneuver evaluation is performed based on induced kinematic discomfort and post-encroachment time. Preliminary lateral and longitudinal planning is performed based on shadow tracks, induced kinematic discomfort and post-encroachment time to generate one or more proposed trajectories. Final trajectory generation is performed by refining at least one of the one or more proposed trajectories to generate the final trajectory. The autonomous vehicle performs a selected maneuver corresponding to the final trajectory within the minor-major intersection.
