Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vehicle technology, specifically relating to a method for calculating yaw rate, electronic equipment, vehicle, and storage medium. Background Technology
[0002] In the stability control of four-wheel steering vehicles, the accurate calculation of the target yaw rate is the core of achieving vehicle dynamic control. Traditional methods are usually based on a two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model, using the front and rear wheel steering angles and vehicle speed as inputs to directly calculate the theoretical yaw rate.
[0003] However, real-world vehicle systems exhibit multi-source delays, including steering system delay, tire dynamic hysteresis, and vehicle inertia delay. Existing technologies typically ignore these delays or use fixed time constants for compensation, leading to significant deviations between the target yaw rate and the actual value, causing false triggering of the stability control system. This effect is particularly amplified in four-wheel steering vehicles, where the coordinated control of front and rear wheel steering further amplifies the delay impact. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, in the specification, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment introduces a method for calculating yaw rate, including steps 1100-1400.
[0045] Step 1100: Calculate the theoretical yaw rate based on the two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model.
[0046] In the two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model, the effects of the steering system and suspension are ignored. The vehicle body only undergoes parallel motion parallel to the ground, i.e., vertical motion along the Z-axis, pitch motion around the Y-axis, and roll motion around the X-axis are ignored. Changes in tire characteristics due to load variations and the effect of tire self-centering torque are also ignored. The influence of ground tangential force on tire lateral slip characteristics is not considered, and there are no aerodynamic effects. The actual car model is simplified to a two-wheeled bicycle model, which is a two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model supported by two laterally elastic tires at the front and rear, exhibiting lateral and yaw motions.
[0047] Specifically, the theoretical yaw rate is calculated using the following formula:
[0048] ;
[0049] in, The theoretical yaw rate, Wheelbase As a stability factor, For vehicle speed, For the front wheel steering angle, For the rear wheel steering angle, This is the rear wheel steering ratio coefficient.
[0050] Step 1200: Determine steering system delay, tire slack delay, and vehicle inertia delay.
[0051] Steering system delay is primarily determined by the vehicle's steering mechanism. The vehicle in this invention is a four-wheel steering vehicle, and its steering mechanism includes a front steering mechanism and a rear steering mechanism. The front steering mechanism controls the steering of the vehicle's front wheels, and the rear steering mechanism controls the steering of the vehicle's rear wheels.
[0052] Tire relaxation delay describes the dynamic response lag of tire lateral force from zero to a steady-state value, directly affecting the vehicle's steering transient characteristics. In this invention, tire relaxation delay includes front tire relaxation time and rear tire relaxation time.
[0053] The front tire relaxation time is calculated according to the following formula:
[0054] ;
[0055] in, This is the period of relaxation for the front tire. This refers to the slack length of the front tire. The speed is the vehicle speed.
[0056] The rear tire relaxation time is calculated according to the following formula:
[0057] ;
[0058] in, This is the time for the rear tires to relax. This refers to the length of the rear tire laxity.
[0059] Vehicle body inertial delay is a parameter in vehicle dynamics that describes the lag of the vehicle body's motion response behind steering input or external excitation.
[0060] The vehicle body inertial delay is calculated according to the following formula:
[0061] ;
[0062] in, For vehicle body inertia delay, For rotational inertia, For total lateral stiffness, This is the distance from the vehicle's center of gravity to the front axle. This is the distance from the vehicle's center of gravity to the rear axle.
[0063] Step 1300: Calculate the equivalent total delay based on the steering system delay, the tire relaxation delay, and the vehicle body inertia delay.
[0064] The equivalent total delay includes the three types of delays mentioned above. The equivalent total delay reflects the overall time lag from driver input to the vehicle actually producing a stable dynamic response.
[0065] Step 1400: Using a phase lead correction algorithm, the theoretical yaw rate is predicted and compensated based on the equivalent total delay to obtain the compensated yaw rate.
[0066] This invention significantly improves the accuracy of calculating the target yaw rate of four-wheel steering vehicles through multi-source delay separation modeling. A dynamic compensation algorithm adapts to different vehicle speeds, loads, and road conditions, reducing the probability of false triggering of stability control. Furthermore, this invention requires no new hardware, is implemented solely through software optimization, and is low-cost and easily integrated into existing systems.
[0067] In this embodiment, the steering system delay includes the response time of the front steering mechanism and the response time of the rear steering mechanism, which are obtained by fitting through a real vehicle step steering experiment.
[0068] like Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the process of calibrating the steering system delay on a real vehicle. First, a step steering signal is input to the steering motor, which then controls the coordinated movement of the front and rear wheels. Vehicle speed and yaw rate are collected in real time using sensors, and the response curve is fitted. Finally, the response time is calculated, and the delay parameters are calibrated.
[0069] In this embodiment, the equivalent total delay is calculated according to the following formula:
[0070] ;
[0071] in, For the equivalent total delay, The response time of the front steering mechanism. For the response time of the rear steering mechanism, This is the period of relaxation for the front tire. This is the time for the rear tires to relax. This is due to vehicle inertia delay.
[0072] The equivalent total delay is the sum of steering system delay, tire slack delay, and vehicle inertia delay. For steering system delay, it includes the response times of the front and rear steering mechanisms; these response times are summed when calculating the equivalent total delay. For tire slack delay, the maximum value between the front and rear tire slack times is added to the equivalent total delay.
[0073] In this embodiment, the compensated yaw rate is calculated according to the following formula:
[0074] ;
[0075] in, The compensated yaw rate, The theoretical yaw rate at the current moment. The theoretical yaw rate at the previous moment. For the equivalent total delay, To control the cycle.
[0076] The compensated yaw rate is calculated by adding a compensation amount to the theoretical yaw rate at the current moment. The compensation amount is related to the equivalent total delay and the rate of change of the theoretical yaw rate. The larger the total delay, the larger the compensation amount. The rate of change of the theoretical yaw rate is the ratio of the difference between the theoretical yaw rates at consecutive time points to the control period. Compensating for the yaw rate in this way effectively improves its accuracy.
[0077] This embodiment introduces an electronic device, including a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores a program or instructions that can run on the processor, and when the program or instructions are executed by the processor, they implement the steps of a yaw rate calculation method as described in any embodiment of the present invention.
