Observation of Dynamic State Parameters and Yaw Stability Control of Four-Wheel-Independent-Drive EV

Abstract

Vehicle yaw stability control is an important part of the active safety of electric vehicles. In order to realize the yaw stability control of vehicles, this paper takes 4-WID electric vehicles as the research object, studies the nonlinear estimation of the state parameters of the lateral stability dynamic system and the yaw stability control strategy. The vehicle state parameter estimation strategy, based on the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) algorithm and the model predictive control algorithm, are designed to control the vehicle yaw stability, which realizes the safe and stable driving of the vehicle. Through CarSim–Simulink joint simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) experiments based on MicroAutoBox, the effectiveness and real-time performance of the designed control strategy are fully verified, which accelerate the development process of the vehicle controller, and realizes the safe and stable driving of the vehicle.
