The Sliding Mode Control for Traction Control System Based on Variable Optimal Slip Ratio

Abstract:

In this paper, the concept of intelligent tire and road surface information measurement methods are introduced, and the sliding mode algorithm for traction control system based on intelligent tire is proposed. By applying braking torque onto the driving wheels, the slip rates are adjusted to maintain within the optimal region on different road surface, and the optimal longitudinal traction is achieved. According to the simulation results on the CARSIM and MATLAB co-simulation platform of several working conditions, the TCS based on sliding mode control method improves the traction performance on different road surface effectively.
