ABSTRACT
This paper proposes an autonomous emergency braking (AEB) algorithm for vulnerable road users (VRU). In order to describe the behavior of pedestrian and cyclist using a single model, simple constant velocity model is used. The motion of vehicle is modeled using constant acceleration model to describe the evasive maneuver of driver. These predicted information is then used to judge whether a collision is inevitable or not. Proposed AEB is activated if a collision is inevitable based on the assumptions. The proposed risk assessment has been incorporated into an AEB system and simulation study has been conducted in real traffic scenarios
