Vehicle and obstacle avoidance assist method thereof
A vehicle and an obstacle avoidance assist method thereof are capable of performing obstacle avoidance assist control by tracking a previously sensed obstacle that deviates from a sensing region of a sensor. The obstacle avoidance assist method of a vehicle includes: detecting at least one obstacle near a vehicle using a proximity sensor; determining a travel range corresponding to a predicted travel trajectory of the body of the vehicle based on a gear stage and a steering angle; determining at least one effective obstacle, based on the travel range, from the at least one detected obstacle; and outputting a warning about the determined at least one effective obstacle.
Method for determining a corrected wheel radius on the basis of the measured yaw rate
A method for determining a wheel radius of a motor vehicle, including calculating a yaw rate of the motor vehicle by means of a wheel speed of at least one wheel and a predefined wheel radius. The calculated yaw rate is compared with a measured yaw rate. The wheel speed is adapted. The calculation of the yaw rate is input, of the at least one wheel by means of a correction factor, so that the calculated yaw rate is equal to the measured yaw rate. The correction factor and the predefined wheel radius or the wheel speed is multiplied. The calculation of the yaw rate is input, for the determination of a corrected wheel radius or of a corrected wheel speed.
VEHICLE HAVING FUNCTION OF LIMITING DRIVING FORCE
A vehicle includes a drive source that supplies a driving force to a drive wheel, a switch, and a controller that puts a first limitation on the driving force or puts a second limitation on the driving force when the switch is operated, the second limitation being smaller than the first limitation.
METHOD FOR EXCHANGING DATA BETWEEN A TRAILER AND A ROAD USER, TRAILER COMMUNICATION MODULE AND TRAILER
A method for transmitting data between a trailer and a road user in a vehicle environment is provided, wherein the data are transmitted according to a V2X standard with low latency via a wireless V2X data connection between a trailer communication module of the trailer and a subscriber communication module of the road user. The wireless data connection is between the trailer communication module and the subscriber communication module, or indirectly via a distribution station. The distribution station forwards the transmitted data directly, wherein the trailer communication module autonomously selects and activates an operating mode depending on the respective road user. As a function of the activated operating mode; trailer data relating to the trailer are selected and autonomously transmitted according to the V2X standard via the wireless V2X data connection and/or subscriber data provided by road users are received and autonomously processed.
Wheel speed sensing system
A wheel speed sensing system for a work vehicle having an engine, a transmission, a differential, and an axle, defining a central longitudinal axis and coupled to the differential. The wheel speed sensing system includes a sensor target disposed at the axle and a sensor configured to transmit a sensor signal, wherein the sensor is located adjacently to the sensor target. The sensor target includes a plurality of step splines each having a top surface and first and second planar sidewalls. The sidewalls of the step splines are aligned along a radius extending from the central longitudinal axis, such that the sides are undercut with respect to the top surface. An intersection of each of the sidewalls with the top surface defines an edge forming a relatively sharp transition configured to be sensed by the sensor. A chamfer at the intersection of the sidewalls and the top surface is also contemplated.
VEHICLE SLIP REGULATION METHOD AND APPARATUS, ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND MEDIUM
The present invention relates to the field of vehicles, in particular to a vehicle slip regulation method and apparatus, an electronic device and a medium. The vehicle slip regulation method comprises the following steps: determining a pavement type of a vehicle driving pavement in response to a vehicle acceleration slip regulation event; determining an overall target acceleration of a vehicle according to the determined pavement type, the speed of a non-driving wheel and the slip time of a driving wheel; and performing vehicle slip regulation according to the overall target acceleration. The method does not need to determine wheel adhesion coefficient of a vehicle according to coefficients such as vehicle weight and road slope, can perform slip regulation by calculating overall target accelerations under different pavements, and has strong practicability and robustness and good acceleration slip regulation effect.
Safety System for Vehicle Chassis Sensors
The present disclosure concerns a safety system for a vehicle. The vehicle includes a tracking unit and at least one chassis sensor. The safety system may receive sensor data from the at least one chassis sensor and trusted data from the tracking unit, and then may detect an inconsistency between the sensor data and the trusted data. In response to the detection of the inconsistency, the safety system may block at least parts of the sensor data from the at least one chassis sensor.
ESTIMATION DEVICE
An estimation device is provided with a braking-driving force acquiring unit that acquires, based on a signal from a sensor that detects a force, braking-driving force information as information indicating a braking force or a driving force applied to wheels of the vehicle; a wheel load acquiring unit that acquires, based on the braking-driving force information, a wheel load received by the wheels from a road surface; and an estimation unit that estimates, based on a value of the wheel load of each wheel included in the vehicle, a gravity center position of the vehicle.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLE, AND DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLE
A control method controls an electric four-wheel-drive vehicle to switch a drive torque distribution between a first distribution prioritizing energy efficiency and a second distribution prioritizing driving performance. The distribution is set to the second distribution where wheel slip is detected during a trip, and returned to the first distribution once the vehicle has stopped. When wheel slip is detected at least during acceleration, the distribution is switched from the first distribution to the second distribution. When wheel slip is detected during deceleration, a slip experience flag is set. The slip experience flag is maintained at least until starting off in a subsequent trip. Where the slip experience flag has been set, the distribution is maintained as the second distribution when the vehicle has stopped, and where the slip experience flag has not been set, the distribution is returned to the first distribution upon the vehicle being stopped.
AUTOMATED DYNAMIC THROTTLE REQUEST FILTERING
Dynamic throttle pedal filtering of a vehicle is provided. An automated throttle filtering system may be included in the vehicle that may operate to filter throttle pedal input based on detection of a rough driving surface. The rough driving surface detection may be based on an evaluation of wheel speed signals or an indication of traction loss. The throttle pedal input may be filtered corresponding to rough driving surface magnitude values determined based on the wheel speed signals. For example, filtered torque demand values may be determined based on the rough driving surface magnitude values and included in a torque demand request communicated to the vehicle's powertrain system. The resulting torque output may modulate an undesirable oscillating torque demand that may be generated in relation to operation of the vehicle on a rough driving surface.
