Summary: | In one embodiment, a method of generating control effort to control an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) includes determining a gear position (forward or reverse) in which the ADV is driving and selecting a driving model and a predictive model based upon the gear position. In a forward gear, the driving model is a dynamic model, such as a "bicycle model," and the predictive model is a look-ahead model. In a reverse gear, the driving model is a hybrid dynamic and kinematic model and the predictive model is a look-back model. A current and predicted lateral error and heading error are determined using the driving model and predictive model, respectively A linear quadratic regulator (LQR) uses the current and predicted lateral error and heading errors, to determine a first control effort, and an augmented control logic determines a second, additional, control effort, to determine a final control effort that is output to a control module of the ADV to drive the ADV. |
