    Abstract: A route-planning system includes a digital-map and a controller. The digital-map is used to define a travel-route of a host-vehicle traveling to a destination. The digital-map identifies a plurality of fueling-stations along the travel-route. The controller is in communication with the digital-map. The controller determines a fuel-range of the host-vehicle. When an operator of the host-vehicle causes the host-vehicle to deviate from the travel-route and the fuel-range is less than a fuel-range-threshold, the controller notifies the operator of the host-vehicle of a fueling-station available to refuel the host-vehicle. The available fueling-station is based on the fuel-range and a distance to the fueling-station when the distance is less than a route-deviation-threshold. The controller then drives the host-vehicle to the fueling-station when the operator selects the fueling-station.

    Abstract: A radar object detection system includes a first sensor and a controller. The first sensor emits a first radar signal toward a first area about a vehicle, and outputs a first signal indicative of detected targets proximate to the vehicle. The controller receives the first signal from the first sensor, determines when a trailer is connected to the vehicle based on the first signal, defines a shadow-zone that corresponds to a first portion of the first area obstructed by the trailer from being viewed by the first sensor, and ignores detected targets within the shadow-zone that are indicated by the first signal.

    Abstract: A radar object detection system includes a radar sensor and a controller. The radar sensor is configured to emit a radar signal toward a defined area proximate to the vehicle, and output a reflection signal indicative of a detected target present in the defined area. The controller is configured to receive the reflection signal from the radar sensor, determine if the detected target corresponds to a trailer towed by the vehicle, and define an exclusion zone characterized as occupied by the trailer and thereby excluded from the defined area where objects can be detected.

    Abstract: A vehicle-control system suitable for use on an automated vehicle includes a human-machine-interface and a controller. The human-machine-interface accepts an input from an operator of a host-vehicle. The controller is in communication with the human-machine-interface. The operator inputs a notification to the human-machine-interface. The notification indicates that the operator detects a circumstance that suggests a presence of the emergency-vehicle on the roadway that has not been detected by the system. The controller drives the host-vehicle in accordance with rules governing an operation of vehicles proximate to an emergency-vehicle stopped alongside a roadway.
