COOPERATIVE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A cooperative traction control system wherein individualized control over each wheel's longitudinal slip and/or lateral skidding is provided. The system uses a combination of an existing traction (18) and stability module (19) linked with a drive torque actuator (20) capable of modulating the amount of drive torque at a'given wheel on a specified axle. The system permits ddve torque at the slipping and/or laterally skidding wheel to be controlled, either alone or in combination with brake actuation and throttle angle control, to reduce or control wheel slip and/or lateral skid and/or vehicle motion.
