- the second condition has two conditions. Let the first condition be the 2-1 condition, and let the second condition be the 2-2 condition. The second condition is met when both the 2-1 condition and the 2-2 condition are met.
- the second-1 condition is that the magnitude of the time differential value of the time to collision TTC is greater than or equal to the changing speed threshold THa.
- the time to collision TTC can be calculated from the inter-vehicle distance/relative speed.
- the time to collision TTC is also an example of the relative time because it is determined by the distance between the vehicles and the relative speed. The relative speed is positive when the speed of the host vehicle is high.

Therefore, the second condition is meaningful in that the headway time THW is satisfied between the first time threshold THt1 and the second time threshold THt2.
- the 2-1 condition determines the magnitude of the time differential value of the collision margin time TTC.
- the time differential value of the time to collision TTC can also be said to be the rate of change of the time to collision TTC or relative acceleration. Since the time to collision TTC is the inter-vehicle distance/relative speed, when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates, the time differential value of the time to collision TTC changes greatly.
- the second condition is a condition for terminating the sailing control when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates even if the headway time THW is between the first time threshold THt1 and the second time threshold THt2.
- the changing speed threshold THa is set to a value that allows it to be determined that the vehicle in front has suddenly decelerated. Also, if the vehicle in front is far away, there is no need to decelerate the vehicle even if the vehicle in front suddenly decelerates.
- the second time threshold THt2 is set from the viewpoint of whether or not the host vehicle needs to decelerate when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates.

- the processing shown in FIG. 4 is periodically executed while the vehicle 1 is running.
- step (hereinafter, step is omitted) S1 the sailing determination unit 13 acquires a sensor signal for determining the conditions for starting sailing control.
- the sensor signal acquired in S1 is, for example, a signal detected by an inter-vehicle distance sensor and a signal detected by a vehicle speed sensor.
- the sailing determination unit 13 determines whether or not the conditions for starting sailing control are satisfied based on the sensor signal acquired in S1. If the determination result of S2 is NO, the process shown in FIG. 4 is terminated. If the determination result of S2 is YES, the process proceeds to S3. In S3, the sailing determination unit 13 outputs to the sailing control unit 12 a signal indicating that the conditions for starting sailing control are met. The sailing control unit 12 starts sailing control when it acquires the signal.
- the sailing determination unit 13 acquires a sensor signal for determining conditions for ending sailing control.
- the sensor signal acquired in S4 is, for example, the signal detected by the inter-vehicle distance sensor and the signal detected by the vehicle speed sensor.
- the sailing determination unit 13 determines whether or not the conditions for terminating the sailing control are satisfied based on the signal acquired in S4.
- Sailing control termination conditions include a condition regarding the time to collision TTC.
- a relative velocity is required to calculate the time to collision TTC. The relative speed is calculated from the change in inter-vehicle distance over time. If the judgment result of S5 is NO, the process returns to S4. If the determination result of S5 is YES, the process proceeds to S6.
- the sailing determination unit 13 outputs to the sailing control unit 12 a signal indicating that the conditions for terminating the sailing control are satisfied.
- the sailing control unit 12 ends the sailing control when it acquires the signal.
- the control device 10 of the present embodiment has the first condition as a condition for ending the sailing control, and thus ends the sailing control when the headway time THW becomes short.
- a second condition is provided as an end condition.
- the sailing control can be terminated early when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates.
- the second condition includes the 2-2 condition that the headway time THW is equal to or less than the second time threshold THt2. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the vehicle 1 from decelerating by ending the sailing control even when the headway time THW is large and deceleration is unnecessary.
- the time to collision TTC is used as the relative time to be time-differentiated. Since the denominator of the time to collision TTC is the relative speed, the value reflects the rapid deceleration of the preceding vehicle rather than the headway time THW, the denominator of which is the speed of the host vehicle. Therefore, the sailing control can be terminated more quickly than when the headway time THW is used as the time-differentiated relative time when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates.
- the headway time THW is used as the relative time.
- the time headway THW is short, if the timing of deceleration control is determined based on the time headway THW, the deceleration control can be started at a deceleration timing close to the deceleration timing when the driver operates the brake by himself/herself. Therefore, the sense of discomfort given to the driver can be reduced.
- the headway time THW is used in the first condition.
- the time to collision TTC may be used instead of the headway time THW.
- the time to headway TTC may be used instead of the headway time THW for condition 2-2.
- the time to collision TTC is time-differentiated under the 2-1 condition.
- the headway time THW may be time-differentiated.
- the case where the headway time THW is equal to the first time threshold THt1 may be excluded. That is, the first condition may be that the headway time THW is smaller than the first time threshold THt1. Also, in the 2-1 condition, the case where the change speed threshold value THa is equal may be excluded. In condition 2-2, the case where headway time THW is equal to second time threshold THt2 may be excluded.
- the 2-1 condition compares the magnitude of the time differential value of the time to collision TTC, that is, the absolute value, with the changing speed threshold THa.
- the time differential value of the time to collision TTC may be compared with the changing speed threshold THa.
- the collision margin time TTC becomes shorter. Therefore, the time differential value of the time to collision TTC when the preceding vehicle decelerates becomes negative.
- the change speed threshold THa to be compared with the time differential value of the collision time to collision TTC is a negative value, and when the preceding vehicle suddenly decelerates, the time differential value of the collision time to collision TTC changes to be smaller than the change speed threshold THa. exceeds the speed threshold THa.
