Longitudinal speed control algorithm to improve the vehicle stability and mobility on a sharp curve
Longitudinal speed control algorithm to improve the vehicle stability and mobility on a sharp curve

A new longitudinal speed control strategy is proposed. It used the lateral jerk information as the feedback to predict the longitudinal acceleration and deceleration, which is especially beneficial to a sharp curve turning at a high driving speed. The performance of the controller is validated with Matlab/Simulink. The simulation results indicate that compared with the traditional vehicle, the G-vector controller can reduce the turning radius and improve the vehicle stability and agility obviously. And the proposed longitudinal speed control strategy could trade-off the longitudinal and lateral acceleration by using the tire force during the turning.
