Abstract
A method for mitigating lane-change disturbance based on cooperative maneuvering includes obtaining traffic data from a target lane, determining whether a traffic in the target lane becomes string unstable in response to an ego vehicle moving to the target lane based on learned car-following models and the traffic data, identifying a connected vehicle in the target lane in response to determining that the traffic in the target lane becomes string unstable in response to an ego vehicle moving to the target lane, and requesting that the identified connected vehicle change lanes from the target lane to another lane to obtain an empty space between a vehicle in front of the identified connected vehicle and a vehicle behind the identified connected vehicle or follow a suggested speed profile to obtain an empty space between the identified connected vehicle and a vehicle in front of the identified connected vehicle.
