Abstract

Methods and systems for predicting velocities of both a lead vehicle and an ego vehicle along a travel route. The ego vehicle generates a velocity profile for the ego vehicle and a velocity prediction for the lead vehicle, and uses the ego vehicle velocity profile and the lead vehicle velocity prediction to estimate position and velocity of the ego vehicle in the travel route. Preview information from a navigation system is used and may include velocity limitations for the travel route derived from the travel route characteristics. Driver actions are used when generating the ego vehicle velocity profile by calculating a virtual velocity setpoint for the ego vehicle.
