String stability analysis of a vehicle platoon with communication range 2 using the two-dimensional induced operator norm

Vehicle strings can be modelled as continuous-discrete 2D systems. However, every such 2D system includes a structural nonessential singularity on the stability boundary and special care is needed to analyse BIBO stability of the system. A unidirectional vehicle string with communication range 2 is analysed and simulated.
