Abstract:
A method of estimating a tire-road friction coefficient includes determining when the slope of a tire characteristic curve relating a utilized longitudinal friction of a tire to longitudinal slip of the tire is linear and non-linear. When the slope of the tire characteristic curve is linear, then the tire-road friction coefficient is estimated by correlating the slope of the tire characteristic curve to the tire-road friction coefficient. When the slope of the tire characteristic curve is non-linear, indicating that the tire is near or at saturation, then the tire-road friction coefficient is estimated by calculating a current utilized longitudinal friction of the tire.
