ABSTRACT:
In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method and system for continued vehicle braking at a vehicle speed below a minimum operating speed threshold when a sensed target disappears. The method and system determine whether the vehicle speed is less than the minimum operating speed threshold, determine whether a sensed target has disappeared if the vehicle speed is less than the minimum operating speed threshold, and generate a phantom target having a range and range rate corresponding to a last known range and range rate, respectively, of the sensed target if the sensed target has disappeared. The method and system also control the vehicle speed based on the range and range rate of the phantom target.
