ONLINE ESTIMATION OF VEHICLE SIDE-SLIP UNDER LINEAR OPERATING REGION

摘要

A system for estimating vehicle side-slip in the linear vehicle operating region that includes updating front and rear cornering stiffness signals. The system includes a first state observer processor that employs a bicycle model with state feedback for generating yaw acceleration and lateral acceleration signals. The system further includes a subtractor that receives the yaw acceleration and lateral acceleration signals and measured yaw rate and lateral acceleration signals, and generates yaw acceleration and lateral acceleration error signals. A parameter estimation processor calculates an updated front cornering stiffness and rear cornering stiffness signals. The updated front and rear cornering stiffness signals are sent back to the first state observer processor, and are used by second state observer processor for generating the estimated vehicle side-slip.
