CONTROL ARRANGEMENT ARRANGED TO CONTROL AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE, AUTONOMOUS DRIVE ARRANGEMENT, VEHICLE AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A control arrangement for controlling an autonomous drive arrangement in a host vehicle including an autonomous drive arrangement configured to control steering and velocity of the host vehicle up to an autonomous drive maximum velocity of the host vehicle, at least partly based on information received from host vehicle sensors, a speed limit determination unit configured to determine speed limits for a route along which the host vehicle travels, and a communication unit configured to receive, from at least one external source, real time preceding vehicle velocity for one or more preceding vehicles, the control arrangement comprising:
- one or more processing units configured to control the autonomous drive arrangement in dependence on a difference between the autonomous drive maximum velocity and at least one of i) a speed limit received from the speed limit determination unit, and ii) at least one preceding vehicle velocity received from the communication unit.

Abstract
A vehicle, method, control arrangement, and autonomous drive arrangement are provided. The control arrangement is for controlling an autonomous drive arrangement in a host vehicle including an autonomous drive arrangement configured to control steering and velocity of the host vehicle up to an autonomous drive maximum velocity of the host vehicle, a speed limit determination unit, and a communication unit arranged to receive, from at least one external source, real time preceding vehicle velocity for one or more preceding vehicles. The control arrangement is configured to control the autonomous drive arrangement in dependence on a difference between the autonomous drive maximum velocity and at least one of a speed limit and at least one preceding vehicle velocity.
