Method Detail

getPath

OTSLine3D getPath(Duration timeStep,
                  Length planDistance,
                  Speed meanSpeed,
                  DirectedLanePosition from,
                  DirectedPoint startPosition,
                  LateralDirectionality laneChangeDirection,
                  OTSLine3D fromLine,
                  OTSLine3D toLine,
                  Duration laneChangeDuration,
                  double lcFraction)
           throws OTSGeometryException

Returns a (partial) path for a lane change. The method is called both at the start and during a lane change, and should return a valid path. This path should at least have a length of planDistance, unless the lane change will be finished during the coming time step. In that case, the caller of this method is to lengthen the path along the center line of the target lane.

Parameters:

timeStep - Duration; time step

planDistance - Length; distance covered during the operational plan

meanSpeed - Speed; mean speed during time step

from - DirectedLanePosition; current position on the from-lanes

startPosition - DirectedPoint; current 2D position

laneChangeDirection - LateralDirectionality; lane change direction

fromLine - OTSLine3D; from line

toLine - OTSLine3D; to line

laneChangeDuration - Duration; current considered duration of the entire lane change

lcFraction - double; fraction of lane change done so far

Returns:

OTSLine3D a (partial) path for a lane change

Throws:

OTSGeometryException - on wrong fractional position
