The aim of this work is to present a complete framework of motion planning for automated vehicles, considering different constraints with parametric curves for lateral and longitudinal planners. Parametric Bézier curves are used as the core approach for trajectory design in intersections, roundabouts, and lane change maneuvers. Additionally, a speed planner algorithm is presented using the same parametric curve approach, considering comfort and safety. A simulation environment is used for testing the planning method in urban conditions. Finally, tests with the real platform in automated mode have been performed showing goods results.133006573enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessUrban Motion Planning Framework Based on N-Bézier Curves Considering Comfort and Safetyjournal article10.1155/2018/6060924Advanced driver assistance systemsAutomationAutomobile driversAutomotive industryAdvanced driver assistance systemsAutomationAutomobile driversAutomotive industryAutomotive EngineeringEconomics and EconometricsMechanical EngineeringComputer Science ApplicationsStrategy and ManagementProject IDinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/692455/EU/European Initiative to Enable Validation for Highly Automated Safe and Secure Systems/ENABLE-S3info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/737469/EU/Advancing fail-aware, fail-safe, and fail-operational electronic components, systems, and architectures for fully automated driving to make future mobility safer, affordable, and end-user acceptable/AutoDriveinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/692455/EU/European Initiative to Enable Validation for Highly Automated Safe and Secure Systems/ENABLE-S3info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/737469/EU/Advancing fail-aware, fail-safe, and fail-operational electronic components, systems, and architectures for fully automated driving to make future mobility safer, affordable, and end-user acceptable/AutoDriveFunding InfoTis work was partly supported by ECSEL Project ENABLES3_x000D_ with Grant Agreement no. 692455-2 and the AutoDrive_x000D_ ECSEL Project with Grant Agreement no. 737469Tis work was partly supported by ECSEL Project ENABLES3_x000D_ with Grant Agreement no. 692455-2 and the AutoDrive_x000D_ ECSEL Project with Grant Agreement no. 737469http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=85051036692&partnerID=8YFLogxK
