Abstract: Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) enables vehicles to communicate with each other to form a group which coordinate for advanced applications on highways and freeways. There are three backbone technologies, autonomous cruise control, collision avoidance and dedicated short-range communication (DSRC), to realise it. In this paper, we aim to control longitudinal motion of homogeneous vehicle platoon. We proposed a model following control strategy to control and manage real-time dynamics of a platoon in the perspective of the cyber-physical point of view. We have assumed wireless transmission for information flow and considered a constant delay in message hopping. Numerical simulation is done to show the feasibility of this technique.
