Active suspension system for an automotive vehicle with slip angle dependent control for enhanced steering characteristics.

摘要

An active suspension control system performs anti-rolling control in response to vehicular rolling by inducing counter rolling in a direction opposite to the vehicular body rolling direction. Magnitude of counter rolling is differentiated between front and rear suspension systems for providing desired steering characteristics. The steering characteristics is adjusted depending on the demand on stability factor in cornering. The stability factor criterion may be based on the vehicular lateral slip angle or slip angular velocity while the rolling magnitude monitoring means comprises a lateral acceleration sensor.
