Integrated control method for balancing a two-wheeled vehicle using control moment gyroscopes and drive-by-wire steering systems
Steering is used to augment the CMG-based balance control of a two-wheeled vehicle, e.g., a bicycle, electric bicycle (“ebike”), scooter, electric scooter, moped, or motorcycle. A control architecture enables a two wheeled vehicle with simultaneously or alternating mechatronic attitude control systems to balance autonomously at rest or while dynamically driven with mechatronic command.

TWO-WHEEL ELECTRIC VEHICLE
The present invention relates to a two-wheel electric vehicle, comprising: a frame (1); a housing (3) connected to the frame (1); one front wheel (2) and one rear wheel (6); and a gyroscope device (5), the gyroscope device (5) comprises a flywheel (13); and a control system (10), the control system (10) controlling a precession angular speed of the flywheel (13) within a period during which the two-wheel electric vehicle is started but does not run, a period during which the two-wheel electric vehicle runs normally or a period during which the two-wheel electric vehicle steers, to keep balance of a vehicle body. The two-wheel electric vehicles solves the technical problem existing in the prior art of poor stability of the two-wheel electric vehicle.
Stabilizing device
The present disclosure relates to a stabilizing device for a vehicle. More particularly, but not exclusively, to a device to prevent unstable condition and a tip over for a two-wheeled vehicle, such as a motorcycle or the like.

Method and device for the driving stabilization of a motorized two-wheeled vehicle using a double-gyroscope device
In a method for driving stabilization of a motorized two-wheeled vehicle, in which two gyroscopes situated side-by-side are present having axes of rotation in parallel to each other, the gyroscopes each being tiltable about a tilting axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation, and the tilting axes of the two gyroscopes also being parallel to each other, the gyroscopes rotating about their axes of rotation in directions of rotation opposite to each other, and in the case of a detected unstable driving behavior of the two-wheeled vehicle, the two rotating gyroscopes are tilted about their respective tilting axis at a first angular velocity, the tilting directions being counter to each other; and the two gyroscopes are subsequently tilted back again at a second angular velocity about their respective tilting axis into their original orientation.

RADIO-ACCESS-TECHNOLOGY-SPECIFIC ACCESS RESTRICTIONS
Various communication systems may benefit from appropriate restriction on use. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from radio-access-technology-specific access restrictions. A method can include registering a user equipment with a network element. The registering can include identifying user equipment capabilities. The method can also include receiving a response from the network element indicating restriction on use of at least one radio access technology.
