My research focus lies on networked control systems in the context of the GROKO-Plan project. New approaches in networked control can be evaluated in the CPM Lab experimentally. The videos on YouTube give an impression of the CPM Lab and research done by members of the CPM Group.

Open topics in my research area usually exist. If you are interested in my research, we can meet up or you can contact me via email in order to draft a suitable thesis topic.

Students worked on the following topics under my supervision:

• Analysis of existing autonomous and networked model-scale vehicles
• Combining graphs for maneuver-based motion planning of networked vehicles
• Sensor fusion for indoor position estimation of model-scale vehicles
• Path tracking control of model-scale vehicles
• Distributed trajectory planning for networked vehicles using graphs
• Receding horizon control using graph search for networked vehicle trajectory planning
• Priority assignment in graph-based distributed trajectory planning
• Using dynamic priority assignment to increase feasibility in priority-based networked control
• Dynamic priorities to increase feasiblity in graph-based trajectory planning for networked model-scale vehicles
• Parallel Priority-based Trajectory Planning with Safety Guarantees for Networked Vehicles
• Implementation of a Manual Controller for Model-scale Vehicles in Mixed Traffic
• Computationally Efficient Graph-based Motion Planning of Networked Vehicles
• Computationally Efficient Graph Search Algorithms for Experiments of Distributed Trajectory Planning
• Generalizing Model-Scale Experiments in Networked and Autonomous Driving Using a Service-Oriented Architecture
• Centralized Graph-Search Algorithms for Effective Trajectory Planning of Networked Vehicles
