Abstract
This paper proposes a four-wheel type trailer system of which steering mechanism is combined with SSM (Sensor Steering Mechanism). SSM is able to apply a front wheel steering type and a four-wheel steering one. In this paper the trailer system is constructed with a trailer and a tractor. Both vehicles have a selfstanding control system and are able to move on the track with a guideway. Previous paper discussed the high-speed moving characteristics of single body vehicle which is guided by the modified SSM. Simulated and experimented data were well coincided with the drifting maneuver at the corner. This paper derives dynamical equations of the trailer system and simulates the movement its on the test track at high-speed. Experimental data demonstrates the advantages of the proposed system.
