Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Controllers, control architectures, systems and methods are described for controlling a host vehicle's participation in a platoon. Described vehicle platooning control systems may include a platoon controller and a gateway processor. The platoon controller is configured to determine torque and braking requests for at least partially automatically controlling the host vehicle to platoon with a platoon partner. The gateway processor coordinates communications between a host vehicle and the platoon partner and optionally a network operations center. A dedicated communications link may optionally directly connect the platoon controller to the gateway processor, with no other devices being coupled to the dedicated communications link. In some embodiments, the gateway processor is not coupled to any of the host vehicle's control related communication bus(es). In some embodiments, the gateway processor includes a message logger and the platoon controller does not have any logging capabilities.
