PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inter-vehicle distance control unit and an inter-vehicle distance control method capable of considering not only a speed of a preceding vehicle (also equal to an own vehicle speed when traveling at a constant inter-vehicle distance) but also a type of the preceding vehicle and a travel road environment.SOLUTION: An inter-vehicle distance control unit comprises: a preceding vehicle type determination unit for determining a type of a preceding vehicle; a vehicle speed measuring unit for measuring a speed of the preceding vehicle or an own vehicle; an inter-vehicle distance measuring unit for measuring a present inter-vehicle distance between the preceding vehicle and the own vehicle; and acceleration/deceleration control unit for controlling acceleration/deceleration for the own vehicle on the basis of the type of the preceding vehicle determined by the preceding vehicle type determination unit, the vehicle speed measured by the vehicle speed measuring unit, and the inter-vehicle distance measured by the inter-vehicle distance measuring unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
【課題】先行車の車速(一定の車間距離で走行している場合の自車の車速でもある)のみならず、先行車の種類や走行道路環境をも考慮した車間距離制御装置及び車間距離制御方法を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明は、先行車の種類を判別するための先行車種類判別装置と、先行車または自車の車速を測定するための車速測定装置と、先行車と自車との間の現在の車間距離を測定するための車間距離測定装置と、前記先行車種類判別装置によって判別された先行車の種類と、前記車速測定装置によって測定された車速と、前記車間距離測定装置によって測定された車間距離と、に基づいて自車の加減速を制御するための加減速制御装置と、を備えたことを特徴とする車間距離制御装置である。【選択図】図5
