However, in order not to damage the steering wheels, the absolute value of the actual change in steering assist of each steering wheel during a single task cycle should not exceed its respective maximum change in steering assist.

[0070] S40. Determine the theoretical steering assist coefficient of each steering wheel based on the maximum change in steering assist of each steering wheel within a single task cycle.

[0071] S401. Take the minimum value among the maximum changes in steering assist of each steering wheel as the theoretical assist boundary change value for the entire vehicle:

[0077] It is understood that in this embodiment, the theoretical steering assist coefficient of each steering wheel is greater than or equal to 1.

[0078] S50. Based on the normalization coefficient of the difference in target steering assist of each steering wheel and the theoretical steering assist coefficient of each steering wheel, determine the control coefficient of the steering assist change and the steering assist execution change of each steering wheel, and then determine the current transient target steering assist of each steering wheel, and control the time required for each steering wheel to change from transient steering assist to its steady-state target steering assist to be equal.

[0079] S501. Based on the normalization coefficient of the difference in target steering assist of each steering wheel and the theoretical steering assist coefficient of each steering wheel, the formula is used to calculate the control coefficient of the assist change of each steering wheel.

[0080] In this embodiment, the ratio of the difference normalization coefficient of the target steering assist of each steering wheel to its theoretical steering coefficient is calculated, and the maximum value among the ratios is determined. Then, based on the difference normalization coefficient of the target steering assist of each steering wheel and the maximum value among the ratios, the assist change control coefficient of each steering wheel is determined.

[0081] Furthermore, the formula for calculating the control coefficient of the assist variation of each steering wheel is as follows:

[0082] ;

[0083] in, for The constant-time left front steering wheel assist change control coefficient. for The constant-time power assist variation control coefficient for the right front steering wheel. for The control coefficient for the change in power assist of the left rear steering wheel at any given time. for Control coefficient for the change in power assist of the right rear steering wheel at any given time.

Continuing with the derivation using the change in steering assist performance of the left front steering wheel as an example:

[0092] ;

[0093] in:

[0094] ;

[0095] Then we have:

[0096] ;

[0097] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the change in steering assist value of each steering wheel will not exceed its respective maximum change in steering assist value, thus avoiding overworking of the steering wheel's mechanical structure. In this embodiment, when controlling the transient steering target assist of each steering wheel, the maximum change in steering assist value of each steering wheel within a single task cycle is considered, which can avoid damage and reduced service life caused by overworking of the steering mechanical structure of each steering wheel, thus protecting the mechanical structure of the vehicle's four-wheel steering.

[0101] Furthermore, for The sign function, for The sign function, for The sign function, for The symbolic function.

[0102] In this embodiment, if the target steering assist change value of a certain steering wheel is positive, it means that the transient steering assist of that steering wheel at the previous moment needs to be increased to achieve its steady-state target steering assist; if the target steering assist change value of a certain steering wheel is negative, it means that the transient steering assist of that steering wheel at the previous moment needs to be reduced to achieve its steady-state target steering assist. However, in this embodiment, the actual steering assist change values ​​of each steering wheel are non-negative. Therefore, when calculating the transient steering assist of each steering wheel at the current moment, the calculation formula needs to be determined based on the sign of the target steering assist change value of each steering wheel.

[0103] Furthermore, at the end of each task cycle, the transient steering assist of each steering wheel is updated. After multiple task cycles, the transient steering assist of each steering wheel will change to its steady-state target steering assist.

[0104] The time required for each steering wheel to change to the steady-state target steering assist is:

[0105] ;

[0106] in, This is the time required for the left front steering wheel to adjust to its steady-state target steering assist. This is the time required for the right front steering wheel to change to its steady-state target steering assist. This refers to the time required for the left rear steering wheel to adjust to its steady-state target steering assist. This is the time required for the right rear steering wheel to change to its steady-state target steering assist.

[0107] Furthermore:

[0108] ;

[0109] Furthermore, substituting the normalization coefficient calculation formula for each steering wheel into the above formula, we can obtain:

[0110] ;

[0111] It can be seen that the time required for each steering wheel to change to its steady-state target steering assist is equal, that is, the four steering wheels reach the steady-state target steering assist at the same moment, thus avoiding the problem of uncoordinated steering assist of the four steering wheels.

[0112] Specifically, in this embodiment, the steering assist change control coefficient and the steering assist execution change are determined by proportional transformation. Through the calculation of the two, the current transient target steering assist of each steering wheel is obtained, and the time required for the transient steering assist of each steering wheel to change to its steady-state target steering assist is equal, so as to avoid the problem of uneven steering assist times for each steering wheel to change to its steady-state target steering assist, which leads to uncoordinated steering assist.

Figure 2 As shown, it includes a first module 21, a second module 22, a third module 23, and a fourth module 24.

[0114] The first module 21 is used to calculate the difference between the steady-state target steering assist of each steering wheel and the transient steering assist of each steering wheel at the previous moment, and to determine the change value of the target steering assist of each steering wheel.

[0115] The second module 22 is used to determine the difference normalization coefficient of the target steering assist of each steering wheel based on the target steering assist change value of each steering wheel;
