Abstract:
1. A method for controlling deceleration of a vehicle on the ground, the method comprising: obtaining a plurality of control parameters, including a preselected deceleration value, a type of deceleration profile selected only from among a “ramp-plateau” deceleration profile and a “plateau-ramp” deceleration profile, an ending position of the vehicle, and a speed of the vehicle at the ending position; after said obtaining the plurality of control parameters, obtaining current dynamic parameters representative of a current position and a current speed of the vehicle; determining, from the obtained current dynamic parameters and from the obtained plurality of control parameters, a reference position and speed of the vehicle, the reference position being a theoretical position to be reached by the vehicle; determining, from the obtained current dynamic parameters and from the reference position and speed of the vehicle, a deceleration command to obtain a preselected ending position and speed of the vehicle; and outputting the deceleration command to perform controlled braking of the vehicle based on the deceleration command.
