✦ Synopsis

This paper addresses the e!ects of "eld of view on lateral control performance in a vision-based autonomous vehicle with simulation studies. When a vehicle drives around a circle with the lateral control algorithm proposed here, the performance is evaluated for a tracking error and ride quality for locations and sizes of the "eld of view. The results show that a "eld of view covering from 10 to 30 m in front of a vehicle is the optimal with respect to both the error and the ride quality, and it is independent of the vehicle speed.
