ADAPTIVE VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM WITH DRIVING STYLE RECOGNITION BASED ON VEHICLE PASSING MANEUVERS
First Claim
1. A method for identifying whether a vehicle maneuver is a passing maneuver, said method comprising:
- reading a vehicle speed signal and a vehicle yaw rate signal from vehicle sensors;
determining whether the vehicle has started a lane change from a first lane to a second lane as a first phase of the passing maneuver;
determining whether the lane change to the second lane has been completed as a second phase of the passing maneuver; and
determining whether there has been a lane change back to the first lane to complete the passing maneuver if the passing maneuver is in the second phase as a third phase of the passing maneuver.

Abstract
An adaptive vehicle control system that classifies a driver'"'"'s driving style based on vehicle passing maneuvers. A process determines whether the vehicle has started a lane change from a first lane to a second lane as a first phase of the passing maneuver. If so, the process determines whether the lane change to the second lane has been completed as a second phase of the passing maneuver. If the lane change to the second lane has been completed, the process determines whether there has been a lane change back to the first lane to complete the passing maneuver as a third phase of the passing maneuver. Further, the process determines whether a time threshold has been exceeded after the passing maneuver is in a second phase, but no lane change back to the first lane has occurred.

11. A method for identifying a vehicle maneuver as a passing maneuver, said method comprising:
-
reading a vehicle speed signal and a vehicle yaw rate signal form vehicle sensors; determining whether the vehicle has started a lane change from a first lane to a second lane as a first phase of the passing maneuver; determining whether the lane change to the second lane has been completed as a second phase of the passing maneuver; determining whether there has been a lane change back to the first lane to complete the passing maneuver if the passing maneuver is in the second phase as a third phase of the passing maneuver; determining whether a time threshold has been exceeded after the passing maneuver is in the second phase, but no lane change back to the first lane has occurred; and classifying the passing maneuver to determine a driver'"'"'s driving style after the passing maneuver has been completed. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for identifying a vehicle maneuver as a passing maneuver, said system comprising:
-
vehicle sensors that provide a vehicle speed signal and a vehicle yaw rate signal; means for determining whether the vehicle has started a lane change from a first lane to a second lane as a first phase of the passing maneuver; means for determining whether the lane change to the second lane has been completed as a second phase of the passing maneuver; and means for determining whether there has been a lane change back to the first lane to complete the passing maneuver if the passing maneuver is in the second phase as a third phase of the passing maneuver. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. A method for identifying a vehicle passing maneuver, said method comprising:
-
providing a vehicle speed signal from a speed sensor; providing a vehicle yaw rate signal from a vehicle yaw rate sensor; providing a steering angle signal from a steering angle sensor; providing a heading angle signal from a heading angle sensor; providing a vehicle acceleration signal from an acceleration sensor; providing a vehicle position signal from a position sensor; and using the sensor signals to determine whether the vehicle is in the passing maneuver.
