Description
Summary:The wheel slip tracking control is the basis of automatic braking control systems, and the accurate tracking for the desired wheel slip in the presence of lumped uncertainty is a vital guarantee of automatic braking control systems reliable operation. Therefore, an adaptive backstepping sliding mode control approach with radial basis function neural network is proposed to design the nonlinear robust wheel slip controller based on a quarter-vehicle model with lumped uncertainty. The radial basis function neural network as the uncertainty observer can effectively reduce the chattering of sliding mode by estimating the lumped uncertainty, and the adaptive law for the unknown weight vector of radial basis function neural network is derived by Lyapunov-based method. The influence of changes in tire sideslip angle and camber angle on the tire -road friction coefficient acts as an unknown scaling factor, and the adaptive law for the unknown scaling factor is derived via Lyapunov-based method. Then, the performance of the proposed controller is verified through simulations of various maneuvers on a full-vehicle dynamics simulation software.
