Systematization of Integrated Motion Control of Ground Vehicles

Abstract

This paper gives an extended analysis of automotive control systems as components of the integrated motion control (IMC). The cooperation of various chassis and powertrain systems is discussed from a viewpoint of improvement of vehicle performance in relation to longitudinal, lateral, and vertical motion dynamics. The classification of IMC systems is proposed. Particular attention is placed on the architecture and methods of subsystems integration.

Complementary Chassis Systems for Ground Vehicles Safety

“…As motion feelings are related to vehicle's Influence of integrated systems coordination on tyre friction utilization. Regions: I -without control; II -integration of active suspension and Active Front Steering (AFS) and ARS; III -integration of traction control and AFS and ARS; IV -integration of ABS and AFS and ARS [30].…”

Review of integrated vehicle dynamics control architectures

“…Regarding the optimization methods, we can cite 3 approaches [28]: Update laws [29], Repeated optimization [30], [31] and Precomputed laws [32]. However, as pointed out by [7], all the results are made by simulation only. There is a clear lack of experimental results and benchmark requirements that allow comparison between the different methods.…”

“…We recall that two enriching reviews of integrated architectures have already been proposed in [4] and [7]. In [4], emphasis has been put on the architectures' topology.…”

“…The authors of [7] focused rather on control objectives. Two classes have been proposed: single-criterion and multicriterion.…”

“…However, no discussion is provided so as to assign an architecture to a specific goal. Another recent classification was proposed in [7], where the classification has been simplified to affect the architectures to the desired goals. Two classes have been proposed: single-criterion and multicriterion integration motion control.…”
