Smooth path and speed planning for an automated public transport vehicle

This paper presents a path and speed planner for automated public transport vehicles in unstructured environments. Since efficiency and comfort are two of the key issues in promoting this kind of transportation system, they are dealt with explicitly in the proposed planning algorithm. To that end, a...
