Abstract

For continuous-time port-Hamiltonian systems (PHS), safety can be shown using the Hamiltonian function as a barrier between the safe and unsafe states. However, the safety property may not be preserved when the system is discretized. This paper presents a safety analysis approach for discrete-time models of PHS using conservative time-discretization and applies the approach to the design of a safe integrated adaptive cruise control (ACC) and lane keeping control (LKC) system. Instead of performing safety analysis in continuous-time and then imposing conditions so that safety is preserved after discretization, safety conditions are developed for a discrete-time model. The approach is applied to the safety analysis of a vehicle dynamics composed with an ACC and a LKC. A hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform is used to evaluate the approach.
