Incorporating driver behavior information into vehicle control strategies can significantly improve performance of vehicle control systems, such as active safety systems and driver assistance systems. This paper proposes an algorithm for driver behavior characterization based on handling limits. In order to implement the handling limit-based algorithm, an interacting multiple model estimation technique...
This paper studies a framework of controlling a system with multiple interactive control loops including a continuously activated primary loop and discretely activated secondary loops. The structure of the controller in the primary loop is unknown while its output is observable and the controllers in secondary loops are subject to design such that the control performance of the primary loop can be...
This paper analyzes a promising method of road grade estimation for its potential use in aiding ground vehicle electronic stability control systems. The method in question incorporates GPS and motion sensors into a basic Kalman Filter model to achieve clean, high update estimates of the vertical and longitudinal velocity states from which the grade can be easily calculated. The knowledge of road grade...
This paper presents a novel approach to developing a driver advisory system that can warn the drivers of driving conditions close to the limit of vehicle handling. This advisory system utilizes intelligence inferred from vehicle states, measured signals, and the other computed variables used for active safety and vehicle control purposes. The onboard computing resources, algorithms, and sensors used...
