Description

Active front wheel steering system based on driver characteristics and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile steering systems, and particularly relates to an active front wheel steering system based on driver characteristics and an individualized control method thereof.
Background
The steering system is one of the key systems of the automobile, and directly determines the comfort, the operation stability and the active safety of the automobile. The active front wheel steering can control the displacement transfer characteristic of a steering system, and obtains ideal steering characteristic through variable transmission ratio and active steering intervention control so as to improve the operation stability and driving active safety of the automobile.
In the existing active front wheel steering technology, the Chinese invention patent application No. CN201710291498.5 discloses a steering stability control system and a control method thereof, wherein a double-row planetary mechanism is utilized to superpose an additional steering angle on a steering system, and the additional steering angle is controlled based on a robust control method optimized by an improved genetic algorithm, so that the robustness of the steering system and the steering stability of a vehicle are effectively improved. However, the above-described technology only studies the influence of the steering system itself on the vehicle stability, and does not consider the influence of the operation of the driver on the vehicle stability. Chinese patent application No. CN201910592489.9 discloses a steering control system based on driver characteristics and a control method thereof, wherein the time-varying property of the driver characteristics is considered in the steering control, that is, the driving characteristics of the driver can be changed in different periods or different road conditions, and a multi-combination controller is used to realize robust control of different driver characteristics, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle while ensuring the economy of the steering system. However, the above-mentioned technology only considers the change of the characteristics of the drivers in different periods and under different road conditions, and does not consider that different types of drivers also have different driving characteristics; therefore, the above techniques have certain limitations.

Because different types of drivers have different vehicle operating abilities, a novice driver has weaker vehicle operating ability, and the stability of the vehicle is easier to lose in the running process, higher requirements are provided for the control of a steering system; for a skilled driver, the control system needs to be reduced because the driver has stronger vehicle control capability and pursues more driving pleasure; the average driver is in between. Different types of drivers have different driving characteristics and thus impose different control requirements on the control of the steering system. Therefore, the method and the device have important research significance for carrying out personalized control on the driving characteristics of different types of drivers so as to meet the driving requirements of the different types of drivers.
