A system and to a method executed in a vehicle control unit for controlling wheel slip of a vehicle, wherein the vehicle comprises at least two wheels driven by at least primary actuator via an open differential. The primary actuator is controlled to rotate at a speed resulting in a slip λ.sub.em of the primary actuator. A signed wheel slip limit λ.sub.lim is determined by adding a configurable value to the slip λ.sub.em of the primary actuator, such that λ.sub.lim>λ.sub.em. The at least two wheels are controlled to rotate at wheel speeds resulting in respective wheel slips λ.sub.l, λ.sub.r below the signed wheel slip limit λ.sub.lim, wherein each one of λ.sub.l, λ.sub.r and λ.sub.em are signed numerical values.

A control method for an electronic limited slip differential of a vehicle includes: determining by a controller, whether the vehicle is in an understeer state or an oversteer state when the vehicle is turning; and performing driving force movement control by the controller. In particular, when the vehicle is in the understeer state and an actual driving force of an inner wheel of the vehicle is greater than an allowable driving force of inner wheel, the controller increases the control torque of the electronic limited slip differential and transfers the inner wheel driving force to the outer wheel of the vehicle.

The vehicle turning control apparatus include a processor to perform a control operation to determine whether a present situation is a normal turning situation based on steering angle information and wheel speed information of the vehicle, and operate an electronic limited slip differential (eLSD) by making an inner wheel slip based on a turning direction when an operation of the eLSD is failed in the normal turning situation; and a storage to store data obtained by the processor and an algorithm executed by the processor.

Example embodiments relate to measuring rotational speeds of trailer wheels using radar. A computing device may cause a vehicle radar unit to transmit radar signals toward a wheel of trailer being pulled by the vehicle. The computing device may receive radar reflections corresponding to radar signals that reflected off the wheel and determine a rotational speed of the wheel based on the radar reflections. For instance, the computing device may identify the highest or lowest frequency in the frequency spectrum of the radar reflections and use the frequency and the wheel's radius to calculate the rotational speed of the wheel. The computing device can use rotational speed measurements for trailer wheels to monitor performance of the trailer and adjust vehicle navigation accordingly. In some instances, the computing device may determine that one of the trailer wheels requires servicing based on monitoring the rotational speeds of the trailer wheels.

Systems and methods for preventing roll-over of a motor vehicle in the event of a transverse load change. The motor vehicle has an individual-wheel drive designed to drive a wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change independently of the at least one other wheel of the motor vehicle. One methods includes identifying a critical state of the motor vehicle in the event of a transverse load change, applying a drive torque by the individual-wheel drive to the motor vehicle wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change such that the wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change is caused to slip, and steering the motor vehicle wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change in the direction of the direction of travel such that a roll-over of the motor vehicle can be prevented.
