Abstract

The application provides a vehicle side stiffness and moment of inertia estimation method and estimation system, and belongs to the field of automatic driving. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring the current vehicle speed of the ego vehicle, the road curvature of the road where the ego vehicle is located, the tire deflection stiffness, the moment of inertia estimation value, the front and rear axle equivalent side stiffness and the moment of inertia reference value; when the current vehicle speed is greater than the first preset vehicle speed and the road curvature of the road is greater than the preset curvature, the first fusion value of the tire deflection stiffness and the front and rear axle equivalent side stiffness after Kalman filtering fusion, and the second fusion value of the moment of inertia estimation value and the moment of inertia reference value after Kalman filtering fusion are output to the power model of the ego vehicle. The application solves the problem that the deflection stiffness and the moment of inertia fluctuate greatly in the prior art, and the automatic driving of the vehicle is unstable.
