COSIN/road searches for the data block $file, and reads:

Name of input variable

Unit

Meaning

file_name

-

Name of a file to read measured or calculated data from. The file must be in standard or Matlab format (cf. COSIN/io documentation).

COSIN/road expects equidistant road profile height data as columns of the matrix stored in the file, and optionally banking angles of left and right track. Unit is [m] and [deg], respectfully.

channel_left_track

-

Column index of left track data.

channel_right_track

-

Column index of right track data. May coincide with channel_left_track, if only one track is measured and/or stored.

channel_left_banking_angle

-

Column index of banking angle of left track (given in deg). If this index is not specified, banking angle of left track is set to 0.

channel_right_banking_angle

-

Column index of banking angle of right track (given in deg). May coincide with channel_left_banking_angle, if only one track  is measured and/or stored. If this index is not specified, banking angle of right track is set to 0.

meas_distance

mm

Distance between two consecutive measured points in longitudinal direction. Travel distances outside the range of data in the file get a road height by extrapolation.

track_linked_to_course

0/1

Flag whether track (or road) has to be linked to the actual vehicle course (i.e. whether the vehicle travel path is used to determine the look-up distance in the road profile). If the vehicle stops on the road, due to numerical reasons, track_linked_to_course = 0  is recommended.
