This paper presents an adaptive leading cruise control strategy for the automated vehicle (AV) and first considers its impact on the following human-driven vehicle (HDV) with diverse driving characteristics in the unified optimization framework for improved holistic energy efficiency. The car-following behaviors of HDV are statistically calibrated using the Next Generation Simulation dataset. In a typical single-lane car-following scenario where AVs and HDVs share the road, the longitudinal speed control of AVs can substantially reduce the energy consumption of the following HDV by avoiding unnecessary acceleration and braking. Moreover, apart from the objectives including car-following safety and traffic efficiency, the energy efficiencies of both AV and HDV are incorporated into the reward function of reinforcement learning (RL). The specific driving pattern of the following HDV is learned in real-time from historical speed information to predict its acceleration and power consumption in the optimization horizon. A comprehensive simulation is conducted to statistically verify the positive impacts of AV on the holistic energy efficiency of the mixed traffic flow with uncertain and diverse human driving behaviors. In freeway driving scenarios, simulation results indicate that the holistic energy efficiency is improved by an average of 6.03% and 6.41% compared to the reference control algorithms, specifically, RL without HDV consideration and model predictive control. These improvements highlight the significance of our approach in optimizing energy efficiency for mixed traffic on freeways.
