Abstract

To achieve anti-crosswind, anti-sideslip, and anti-rollover in trajectory-tracking for Four-Wheel Steering (4WS) autonomous vehicles, a trajectory-tracking controller based on a four-channel Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) was used to track the desired lateral displacement, longitudinal displacement, yaw angle, and roll angle, and minimize the tracking errors between the actual output values and the desired values through static decoupling steering and braking systems. In addition, the anti-crosswind, anti-sideslip, and anti-rollover simulations were implemented with CarSim®. Finally, the simulation results showed that the 4WS autonomous vehicle with the controller still has good anti-crosswind, anti-sideslip, and anti-rollover performance in path tracking, even under a small turning radius or lowadhesion curved roads.

Summary

Introduction

Autonomous vehicles often encounter extreme conditions in trajectory-tracking, such as crosswinds, high-speed driving, small turning radius, and low-adhesion curved roads. Four-Wheel Steering (4WS) or DYC is generally an effective measure to improve the trajectory-tracking performance of vehicles under these curved roads When it comes to vehicles with 4WS, to prevent them from losing steering ability and reduce the sideslip, their yaw rate response is generally set to a first-order lag response, and their sideslip angle response. The fuzzy control rules of the trajectory-tracking control method based on fuzzy neural network come from a lot of neural network training This control method can eliminate the lateral displacement deviation of the vehicle by adjusting the FWS angle in the steering system, and can eliminate the yaw angle deviation of the vehicle by the braking force in the braking system.
