Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for vehicle cruise control smoothness adaptation. An example vehicle includes a GPS receiver for receiving expected road incline data, a camera for determining a half lane width position, and a radar for determining two respective leading vehicle angles of arrival. The vehicle also includes a processor for determining an actual road incline by filtering the expected road incline, half lane width position, and leading vehicle angles of arrival. And the processor is further for modifying a cruise control system based on the actual road incline.
