摘要
A non-linear observer is proposed for the estimation of the longitudinal and lateral velocities of automotive vehicles due to highly non-linear friction. To take the unknown time-varying road conditions into account, a real-time tyre-road friction estimation algorithm is provided for adaptation to changes of different road adhesion characteristics. Besides, the coupling effects of the longitudinal and lateral forces are fully exploited to design the non-linear observer based on the longitudinal and lateral acceleration measurements. The observer is computationally efficient and is based on a standard sensor configuration commonly available in modern cars. The uniform global asymptotical stability of the adaptive observer is guaranteed under a certain persistency-of-excitation condition. Moreover, a stronger local stability result can also be obtained, i.e. uniform local exponential stability. The performance of the observer is compared with that of existing approaches under different manoeuvres and road conditions.
