Original abstract

Autonomous racing vehicles rely on global planning algorithms to generate efficient and safe trajectories, which are crucial for minimizing lap times. This paper presents a trajectory planning strategy to optimize lap times by employing minimum curvature optimization, complemented by Gaussian Process models for tire-road friction estimation. The incorporation of Gaussian Process models into the global planning framework has been shown to improve the accuracy of vehicle motion approximation, subsequently enhancing the tracking performance of the generated trajectory. This paper details the friction estimation techniques, the integration of the friction map with global planning, and the validation of the proposed trajectory planning framework. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency and safety of the planning outcomes from the proposed methods, highlighting their potential advantages in real-world racing scenarios.
