Adaptive Coordinated Path Tracking Control Strategy for Autonomous Vehicles with Direct Yaw Moment Control

摘要

It is a striking fact that the path tracking accuracy of autonomous vehicles based on active front wheel steering is poor under high-speed and large-curvature conditions.In this study,an adaptive path tracking control strategy that coordinates active front wheel steering and direct yaw moment is proposed based on model predictive control algorithm.The recursive least square method with a forgetting factor is used to identify the rear tire cornering stiffness and update the path tracking system prediction model.To adaptively adjust the priorities of path tracking accuracy and vehicle stability,an adaptive strategy based on fuzzy rules is applied to change the weight coefficients in the cost function.An adaptive control strategy for coordinating active front steering and direct yaw moment is proposed to improve the path tracking accuracy under high-speed and large-curvature conditions.To ensure vehicle stability,the sideslip angle,yaw rate and zero moment methods are used to construct optimization constraints based on the model predictive control frame.It is verified through simulation experiments that the proposed adaptive coordinated control strategy can improve the path tracking accuracy and ensure vehicle stability under high-speed and largecurvature conditions.
