摘要： A method is provided for determining a state of a road condition using a linear model-based estimation technique. Two vehicle reference models are defined to represent vehicles operating under non-slippery and slippery road surfaces respectively. An index that reflects the vehicle understeer characteristics is also defined. Indices are determined from the reference models under the non-slippery road surface, the slippery road surface, and from vehicle sensor measurement, respectively. A first root mean square deviation is calculated between the index of reference model under non-slippery road surface and the index calculated based on sensor measurement. A second root mean square deviation is calculated between the index of reference model under slippery road surface and the index calculated based on sensor measurement. A probability analysis is applied as a function of probability density functions for identifying the condition of the road surface between a non-slippery road surface and a slippery road surface.

摘要： A system and method for detecting the absence of contact between the hands of a driver of a vehicle and a steering wheel of the vehicle that have particular application in ensuring the proper functioning of various components of the driver assist steering systems and maintaining driver attentiveness. The method for detecting a no-contact condition between the hands of the driver of the vehicle and the steering wheel includes generating a model of the no-contact condition using a second-order transfer function. The method further includes obtaining a set of model-generated steering dynamics by estimating a plurality of parameters of the second-order transfer function and a set of measured steering dynamics using a plurality of sensors. The set of model-generated steering dynamics and the set of measured steering dynamics are then compared and the no-contact condition is detected based on this comparison.

The control system provides an open-loop feed-forward control signal based on hand-wheel angle and vehicle speed. The control system includes a vehicle yaw rate command interpreter that provides a vehicle closed-loop feedback control signal based on the yaw rate of the vehicle, a trailer yaw rate command interpreter that provides a trailer closed-loop feedback control signal based on the yaw rate of the trailer, and a vehicle lateral acceleration command interpreter that provides a closed-loop feedback control signal based on the lateral acceleration of the vehicle. The closed-loop feedback signals are added together and then combined with the open-loop feed-forward control signal to provide the rear-wheel steering assist.
