The purpose of this research is to tackle one of the most difficult issues in the realm of self-driving cars, which is the testing of advanced self-driving application scenarios. Thus, this study proposes a simulation testing system based on hardware-in-the-loop simulation technology. This system can enable data exchange between hardware systems as well as replicate and evaluate the algorithmic operations of the equipment under laboratory conditions. The system can integrate scenario simulation software with MATLAB to evaluate algorithm performance. The vehicle formation control system is tailored for collaborative vehicle formation management scenarios and tested in the simulation test system. The findings display the functional integrity of the vehicle formation control system, the reliability of lane changing and the stability and safety of cruising. It additionally demonstrates that the simulation testing system has the ability to recreate cooperative vehicle arrangement management situations and assess their functionality and performance. In forthcoming research, comprehensive functional and performance assessments will be executed on various typical scenarios for advanced autonomous driving applications in order to authenticate the simulation test system’s applicability.
