<p>A vehicle yaw control method utilizing differential braking of the vehicle wheels to impart a desired yaw moment on the vehicle, the vehicle having a pair of un-driven wheels, the method comprising the steps of: measuring speeds of the un-driven wheels of the vehicle (28, 30, 32, 34); estimating a yaw rate of the vehicle based on a difference between the measured speeds (134); analyzing known vehicle parameters including the measured wheel speeds, a yaw error based on deviation of the estimated yaw rate from a desired yaw rate, vehicle steering angle, and presence of driver braking to determine when the estimated yaw rate is valid and when the estimated yaw rate is invalid (104); differentially braking the vehicle wheels to impart a yaw moment based on the deviation of the estimated yaw rate from the desired yaw rate when the estimated yaw rate is determined to be valid (108, 110, 112, 114, 116); and differentially braking the vehicle wheels to impart a yaw moment based on the desired yaw rate without regard to the estimated yaw rate when the estimated yaw rate is determined to be invalid (118, 120, 114, 116)..</p> |
