Abstract

This paper presents the maximum tire-road friction coefficient estimation algorithm which considers about the effect of states. Tire force information is an important factor for active safety system. However, it is difficult to estimate due to the dependency on many states such as vehicle speed, tire pressure, and tire wear. In this paper, several experimental researches about the effect of states on the maximum friction coefficient and previous maximum tire-road friction coefficient estimation algorithms are reviewed and summarized. The influential states and the estimation method which doesn't require extra sensors were determined and combined. The proposed algorithm consists of two parts: an interacting multiple models (IMM) based maximum tire-road friction coefficient estimation and an updating sequence based on the effect of vehicle speed. To validate the algorithm, the closed-loop simulation with the advanced emergency braking system (AEBS) has been conducted. It has been shown that the proposed estimation algorithm could enhance the performance of AEBS algorithm.
