Real-Time Signal Denoising Algorithm in Wheel Force Transducer

Article Preview

Abstract:

The wheel force transducer (WFT) is used to measure dynamic wheel loads. Unlike other force sensors, WFT is rotating with the wheel. For this reason, the outputs and the inputs of the transducer are nonlinearly related, and traditional Kalman Filter is not suitable. In this paper, a new real-time filter algorithm utilizing Quadrature Kalman Filter (QKF) is proposed to solve this problem. In Quadrature Kalman Filter, Singer model is introduced to track the wheel force, and the observation function is established for WFT. The simulation results illustrate that the new filter outperforms the traditional Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and Extended Kalman Filter (EKF).
