摘　　要：Real-time vehicle prediction is crucial in autonomous driving technology,as it allows adjustments to be made in advance to the driver or the vehicle,enabling them to take smoother driving actions to avoid potential collisions.This study proposes a physics-enhanced residual learning(PERL)-based predictive control method to mitigate traffic oscillation in the mixed traffic environment of connected and automated vehicles(CAVs)and human-driven vehicles(HDVs).The introduced model includes a prediction model and a CAV controller.The prediction model is responsible for forecasting the future behavior of the preceding vehicle on the basis of the behavior of preceding vehicles.This PERL model combines physical information(i.e.,traffic wave properties)with data-driven features extracted from deep learning techniques,thereby precisely predicting the behavior of the preceding vehicle,especially speed fluctuations,to allow sufficient time for the vehicle/driver to respond to these speed fluctuations.For the CAV controller,we employ a model predictive control(MPC)model that considers the dynamics of the CAV and its following vehicles,improving safety and comfort for the entire platoon.The proposed model is applied to an autonomous driving vehicle through vehicle-in-the-loop(ViL)and compared with real driving data and three benchmark models.The experimental results validate the proposed method in terms of damping traffic oscillation and enhancing the safety and fuel efficiency of the CAV and the following vehicles in mixed traffic in the presence of uncertain human-driven vehicle dynamics and actuator lag.
