Forward to the Future: A Deep Learning-based Approach to Mitigate
Control Transmission Delay of Teleoperated Driving in Unstructured
Environments
Abstract
Teleoperated driving is a leading approach for operating unmanned ground
vehicles (UGVs) in unstructured environments, where driving stability is
crucial. However, time delays may compromise this stability. In this
letter, we propose a computational delay compensation method based on
deep learning models to address the control transmission delay.
Initially, we collect teleoperated driving data from simulated
unstructured environments and then design a delay compensation method
utilizing time-series forecasting models. This method generates future
control inputs equivalent to the delayed time steps. Our evaluation
demonstrates the possibility of our delay compensation method for
teleoperated driving in unstructured environments.
