Observer design for two-wheeled vehicle: A Takagi-Sugeno approach with unmeasurable premise variables

Abstract

Abstract-This paper is dedicated to the problem of observer design for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) nonlinear systems with unmeasurable premise variables (TSUPV) and application to autonomous bicycle system. The main idea is based on the use of differential mean value theorem combined to the sector nonlinearity transformation. The objective of this approach is to make the state estimation error dynamic on a T-S form which allows to apply the classical Lyapunov analysis to derive convergence conditions. The design algorithm is proposed in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMI). To illustrate the proposed methodology, a nonlinear bicycle model is considered.

Estimation of lateral motorcycle dynamics and rider action with Luenberger observer

“…Longitudinal dynamic estimation of PTW is discussed in [8] or [9], whereas lateral estimation is addressed in [5], [10], [11], [12], [13] and recently in [14]. Concerning lateral estimation most of cited papers consider restrictive assumptions which regarding riding motorcycle practices are not in adequation with the reality.…”

Fault Detection for T–S Fuzzy Systems With Unknown Membership Functions

“…The H ∞ filter and controller designs for T-S fuzzy systems with immeasurable premise variables or uncertain parameters have been investigated in [19]- [23]. In addition, the observer design has been considered in [24] and [25]. Note that the FD problem is different from robust H ∞ filter and controller designs because the generated residual has to guarantee robustness against unknown inputs and simultaneously remain sensitive to faults.…”

An Unknown-Input HOSM Approach to Estimate Lean and Steering Motorcycle Dynamics

“…Thus, we propose to use observation techniques to overcome measurement noise, expensive sensors, etc. Within this context, including all methodologies, very few studies exist [11]- [13].…”
