Abstract
This work addresses the challenge of vehicle mass estimation using a longitudinal vehicle dynamics model, which adopts an errors-in-variables formulation due to the presence of noise-contaminated measurements in both input and output variables. The reduced vehicle dynamics model is ill-conditioned by nature of correlated input variables and a lack of persistent excitation in the measured data. A regularized iterative weighted total least squares (RIWTLS) method is therefore developed and has the advantage of producing parameter uncertainty quantification and measurement bias estimation alongside the estimated system parameters. A complementary adaptive regularization scheme is developed and serves to control the numerical stability of the RIWTLS algorithm based on the conditioning of incoming data. Experimental tests using electric vehicle data and a batch estimation scheme highlight the performance of the proposed RIWTLS algorithm, estimating vehicle mass to within ±1% accuracy.
