Abstract

Methods and systems are described herein for navigating a vehicle. A target location may be received, and based on the target location and vehicle parameters, an acceleration profile for the vehicle may be generated. The acceleration profile may include a first duration for accelerating the vehicle and a second duration for not accelerating the vehicle. When the acceleration profile is generated, a trajectory profile for travelling to the target location may be generated using the acceleration profile. The trajectory profile may include multiple instances of the acceleration profile. When the trajectory profile is being executed, a distance travelled by the vehicle after each instance of the acceleration profile is executed may be calculated. Based on the distance travelled after each instance of the acceleration profile is executed, an instance of when the target location is reached may be determined.
