Abstract
A vehicle longitudinal speed control testing apparatus includes a first movable target body spaced away from a vehicle executing active speed control while loaded by a dynamometer assembly, and a controller. The controller changes a distance between the first movable target body and the vehicle to cause a speed parameter of the vehicle to follow a desired vehicle speed schedule based on speed parameter feedback from the dynamometer assembly or the vehicle, a sum of a speed of the first movable target body and the speed parameter feedback to follow a desired absolute speed schedule, or the distance between the first movable target body and the vehicle to increase according to a desired distance schedule.
