METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DRIVING OF VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18096832 titled 'METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DRIVING OF VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract is for controlling the driving of a vehicle by adjusting handling responsiveness based on the vehicle driving mode and steering input information. It involves distributing torque commands to the left and right wheels, correcting these commands based on the driving mode and driver input, and then implementing torque command follow control to adjust the torque applied to the wheels.
- Differential control of torque commands:
- The method distributes torque commands to the left and right wheels of the vehicle. - It corrects these torque commands using a differential control amount based on the vehicle driving mode and steering input from the driver.
- Torque command follow control:
- After correcting the torque commands, the method performs torque command follow control to adjust the torque applied to the wheels accordingly. - This helps in controlling the vehicle's handling responsiveness based on the driving mode and driver input.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in autonomous vehicles, electric vehicles, and advanced driver assistance systems to enhance driving performance and safety.
Problems Solved
1. Improved handling responsiveness based on driving conditions and driver input. 2. Enhanced control over torque distribution to the wheels for better traction and stability.
Benefits
1. Increased safety on the road by optimizing handling responsiveness. 2. Enhanced driving experience with smoother torque control. 3. Improved efficiency in vehicle performance based on driving mode.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing torque distribution in vehicles for various driving modes and conditions can be beneficial for automotive manufacturers, autonomous vehicle companies, and providers of advanced driver assistance systems.
Possible Prior Art
One potential prior art could be the use of torque vectoring systems in vehicles to control the distribution of torque to individual wheels for improved handling and performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for controlling driving of a vehicle, can control driving of a vehicle so that handling responsiveness may be differentiated in correspondence to a vehicle driving mode, steering input information by a driver, etc. The method for controlling driving of a vehicle distributes a request torque command into a left wheel torque command and a right wheel torque command, corrects the distributed torque commands using a differential control amount according to a vehicle driving mode and steering input information by a driver, and then performs torque command follow control for controlling torque which is applied to the wheels based on the post-correction torque commands.
