Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] In vehicle control schemes operating under low-traction (referring to low-adhesion road surfaces) starting conditions, wheel slippage is mainly suppressed by limiting torque or braking at the drive wheel end through TCS (Traction Control System). However, this approach only focuses on optimizing longitudinal power output and addressing wheel slippage, without actively controlling lateral vehicle movement or resolving issues such as yaw rate deviation and steering wheel offset (steer-off) caused by uneven torque distribution or changes in road surface adhesion. This necessitates frequent steering wheel corrections by the driver to control the vehicle's attitude, severely impacting driver confidence. To address this, this application's embodiment integrates the rear-wheel steering system with drive / braking control to construct a multi-objective collaborative framework. This systematically solves the aforementioned deficiencies, significantly reducing the frequency and extent of driver steering wheel corrections without affecting vehicle acceleration performance, thus reducing driver workload and improving the driving experience.

[0022] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle control method provided in an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 1 The vehicle control method specifically includes the following steps: S110. When the vehicle's low-adhesion start-up stability control function is activated, the driving torque of the wheel is controlled according to the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio of the wheel, so that the first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio is maintained within a first set range.

[0023] Among them, the vehicle's low-traction start-up stability control function can only be activated under specific operating conditions. It is a vehicle stability control function that integrates drive, braking, and rear-wheel steering control. To ensure smooth and safe driving during low-traction start-up, this function is only activated when the road conditions are low-traction, the speed is low, the vehicle is in Drive (D) gear, and the accelerator pedal opening exceeds a certain proportion.

[0024] Low-adhesion road conditions can be determined by the road surface adhesion coefficient (μ), which can be estimated based on the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) model or the relationship between driving torque and slip ratio. Specific vehicle models can be modeled and calibrated during development. For example, when the estimated road surface adhesion coefficient is <0.3, it is considered a low-adhesion road condition. Low speed and accelerator pedal opening are both calibrated values. For example, when the vehicle speed is ≤30 km / h, it is considered a low-speed condition; when the accelerator pedal opening is ≥30%, it is considered that the accelerator pedal opening exceeds a certain proportion.

[0025] Correspondingly, see reference as follows Figure 2The flowchart shown illustrates a process for determining whether to activate the vehicle's low-adhesion start-up stability control function. Specifically, it includes: During normal vehicle operation, determining if the vehicle speed is less than a speed threshold. If not, the low-adhesion start-up stability control function is off, i.e., not activated. If the vehicle speed is less than the speed threshold, determining if the gear is in Drive (D). If the gear is not in Drive, the low-adhesion start-up stability control function is off, i.e., not activated. If the gear is in Drive, determining if the coefficient of adhesion is less than a coefficient threshold. If the coefficient of adhesion is not less than the coefficient threshold, the low-adhesion start-up stability control function is off, i.e., not activated. If the coefficient of adhesion is less than the coefficient threshold, determining if the throttle opening is greater than an opening threshold. If the throttle opening is not greater than the opening threshold, the low-adhesion start-up stability control function is not activated; if the throttle opening is greater than the opening threshold, the low-adhesion start-up stability control function is activated.

[0026] When the vehicle's low-traction start-up stability control function is activated, based on the fusion control of motor drive torque and braking, the vehicle slip ratio is controlled within a target range (usually set at 10%-20%) to assist the vehicle in getting out of trouble and improve the vehicle's acceleration performance. Additionally, through the fusion control of rear-wheel steering and braking, the vehicle's yaw rate is compensated, keeping it within the expected target range to reduce the driver's steering wheel correction amplitude and frequency. Through this comprehensive control, the expected goals of low-traction start-up stability control are achieved.

[0027] Among them, slip ratio is a key parameter for measuring the degree of wheel slippage and is used to assess the adhesion between the wheel and the ground.

[0028] Specifically, the driving torque of the wheel is controlled according to the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio, so that the first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio is maintained within a first set range.

[0029] For example, the actual slip ratio of the wheel can be determined based on the wheel's angular velocity, tire rolling radius, and the vehicle's longitudinal speed using the following formula:

[0030] in, This indicates the actual slip ratio of the wheel. This represents the angular velocity of the wheel. This indicates the tire rolling radius of the wheel. This indicates the vehicle's longitudinal speed.

[0031] Target slip ratio It can be set to 10%, which is a reference value and can be adjusted according to the actual effect.

[0032] Calculate the first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio. .

[0033] Using the first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio as the control variable, the torque adjustment increment is determined, specifically as follows:

[0034] in, This indicates a torque adjustment increment. Indicates proportional gain (used to affect response speed). Indicates the integral gain (used to eliminate static error). This represents the differential gain (used to suppress oscillations, also known as the robust term gain, which can suppress road surface disturbances). t Indicates time, Represents the smallest unit of time. This represents the first derivative of the first deviation relative to time.

[0035] The proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control algorithm is the most classic and commonly used closed-loop control algorithm. Its core logic is to compare the deviation between the "target value" (i.e., the desired value, which in this embodiment refers to the target slip ratio) and the "actual value" (which in this embodiment refers to the actual slip ratio), and combine the three functions of "instant response", "cumulative correction" and "trend prediction" to output a control signal (in this embodiment, the driving torque) to quickly and stably eliminate the deviation, and ultimately allow the controlled object to accurately follow the target value.

[0036] The target value of the driving torque is determined based on the torque adjustment increment; the driving torque of the corresponding wheel is controlled according to the target value.

[0037] The determination of the target value of the drive torque based on the torque adjustment increment includes: The difference between the vehicle's required torque and the torque adjustment increment is determined as the target value of the drive torque. The vehicle's required torque is determined based on the accelerator pedal opening. Essentially, the required torque means that the driver, through pressing the accelerator pedal, transmits a command to the vehicle indicating the amount of power needed. The accelerator pedal opening is a quantifiable indicator of the driver's operation, and the required torque is the demanded power, or required torque, derived from this indicator. Specifically, the required torque corresponding to a particular accelerator pedal opening can be found by establishing the correspondence between accelerator pedal opening and required torque.

[0038] By determining the difference between the vehicle's required torque and the torque adjustment increment as the target value of the drive torque, the purpose of reducing the drive torque is achieved, thereby reducing the wheel slip ratio.

[0039] Alternatively, the minimum of the difference between the vehicle's required torque and the torque adjustment increment, and the minimum anti-stall torque, can be determined as the target value. This can be expressed by the following calculation formula:

[0040] This represents the target value. This indicates the required torque. This indicates the torque adjustment increment. This indicates the minimum torque required to prevent stalling.

[0041] The minimum torque to prevent stalling refers to the minimum torque required to ensure that the vehicle speed is not zero. For example, on icy or snowy roads, the minimum torque to prevent stalling is usually 50 N·m.

[0042] By determining the minimum value of the difference between the vehicle's required torque and the torque adjustment increment, and the minimum torque for preventing stall, the target value is set. Under the premise of ensuring that the vehicle does not stall, the driving torque is reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing wheel slip ratio.

[0043] S120. The rear wheel steering angle is controlled according to the actual yaw rate and the target yaw rate of the vehicle, so that the second deviation between the target yaw rate and the actual yaw rate is maintained within a second set range.

[0044] The actual yaw rate can be obtained in real time through sensor detection.

[0045] The target yaw rate is the expected value of the vehicle's yaw rate, which can be calculated based on the driver's steering intention, the vehicle's inherent parameters, and real-time driving conditions. The target yaw rate represents the ideal yaw rate that the vehicle should have, ensuring that the vehicle's steering response matches the driver's expectations while also guaranteeing vehicle stability.

[0046] The target yaw rate can be determined based on the vehicle dynamics model and combined with actual vehicle calibration data.

[0047] For example, the target yaw rate is determined by the following formula:

[0048] in, Indicates the target's yaw rate. Indicates the vehicle's longitudinal speed. L Indicates the vehicle's wheelbase. Indicates the steering angle of the vehicle's front wheels. The calibration coefficient, determined through testing, represents the understeer gradient and is an inherent characteristic of the vehicle. It is determined by the vehicle's mass, wheelbase, center of gravity position, and lateral stiffness of the front and rear axles. It can be determined through testing during the development phase and stored as a fixed parameter in the control unit.

[0049] For example, controlling the rear wheel steering angle based on the vehicle's actual yaw rate and target yaw rate includes: Calculate the second deviation between the target yaw rate and the actual yaw rate. , This represents the actual yaw rate.

[0050] The compensation value for the rear wheel steering angle is determined based on the second deviation. Specifically, the desired yaw moment required to eliminate the second deviation can be determined using a PID control algorithm, as shown in the following calculation formula:

[0051] in, This represents the desired yaw moment. Represents the proportionality coefficient. Represents the integral coefficient. This represents the differential coefficient.

[0052] If the actual yaw moment generated by the rear wheels equals the desired yaw moment, then the second deviation between the target yaw rate and the actual yaw rate of the vehicle can be maintained within a second set range. Based on this, the required compensation value for the rear wheel steering angle can be calculated. Specifically, the actual yaw moment generated by the rear wheels... .

[0053] in, This indicates the actual yaw moment generated by the rear wheels. Indicates the lateral force on the rear axle. Indicates the total lateral stiffness of the rear wheel. Indicates the rear wheel slip angle. This indicates the distance from the vehicle's center of gravity to the rear axle. Indicates the rear wheel steering angle. Indicates the vehicle's center of gravity deflection angle. Indicates the vehicle's longitudinal speed. This indicates the vehicle's actual yaw rate.

[0054] If the actual yaw moment generated by the rear wheel is equal to the desired yaw moment, that is... This ensures that the second deviation between the target yaw rate and the actual yaw rate of the vehicle is maintained within a second set range. Based on this, the compensation value for the rear wheel steering angle is calculated. + + .

[0055] The rear wheel angle is controlled based on the compensation value of the rear wheel angle to maintain the second deviation within a second set range. Specifically, if the compensation value of the rear wheel angle is less than or equal to a safety threshold, the rear wheel angle is controlled according to the compensation value. On low-friction surfaces, yaw stability control is achieved based on the rear wheel steering system. To achieve the ideal effect, the safety threshold is limited to ±2°. This is because if the rear wheel steering angle is too large, it will cause the vehicle to produce unexpected abnormal yaw, increasing the difficulty of control. ±2° is a reference value and can be adjusted according to the actual calibration effect.

[0056] If the compensation value of the rear wheel steering angle is greater than the safety threshold, the reference wheel with the highest slip ratio is determined. The braking torque is determined based on the actual slip ratio and target slip ratio of the reference wheel, as well as the actual and target yaw rates. The reference wheel is braked according to the braking torque. The purpose is to generate a reverse yaw moment by applying braking force, thereby balancing the positive yaw moment and ultimately stabilizing the vehicle's yaw rate. For example, applying braking force to the left rear wheel can suppress clockwise tail-swing and simultaneously assist in applying force to control wheel slippage.

[0057] Determining the braking torque based on the actual slip ratio and target slip ratio of the reference wheel, as well as the actual yaw rate and target yaw rate, includes: determining the braking torque based on the braking force gain coefficient, the difference between the actual slip ratio and target slip ratio of the reference wheel, the difference between the actual yaw rate and target yaw rate of the reference wheel, and the yaw stability weighting coefficient.

[0058] For example, the braking torque is determined by the following calculation formula:

[0059] in, Indicates the force applied to the reference wheel i Braking torque, This represents the braking force gain coefficient. Indicates reference wheel i The difference between the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio This represents the difference between the actual yaw rate and the target yaw rate. This represents the yaw stability weighting coefficient.

[0060] During the low-adhesion start-up stability control phase, vehicle stability is mainly judged based on slip ratio deviation and yaw rate deviation. By using slip ratio control and yaw stability control closed loop, the vehicle can achieve a stable state in low-adhesion scenarios.

[0061] Furthermore, in some implementations, if the vehicle cannot achieve a stable state through drive torque control and rear wheel steering angle control, differential braking backup control can be added.

[0062] For example, after controlling the driving torque of the wheel based on the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio, if the first deviation is not maintained within a first set range, or if the second deviation is not maintained within a second set range after controlling the rear wheel steering angle based on the actual yaw rate and the target yaw rate of the vehicle, the method further includes: determining a reference wheel with the highest slip ratio; determining a braking torque based on the actual slip ratio and the target slip ratio of the reference wheel, as well as the actual yaw rate and the target yaw rate; and braking the reference wheel according to the braking torque.

[0063] In some implementations, reference is made to, for example Figure 3 The diagram illustrates a control flow, specifically including: First, controlling the drive torque to reduce torque based on the slip ratio deviation to stabilize the first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio, while not applying braking force to prioritize vehicle acceleration performance. Next, the rear-wheel steering system engages compensation to suppress abnormal yaw during low-friction start-up, primarily by suppressing tail-wagging. After the drive torque and rear-wheel steering systems intervene, if the slip ratio deviation and yaw rate deviation are controlled within the deviation threshold range, the vehicle is deemed stable, and the control flow ends. If the slip ratio deviation and yaw rate deviation are not controlled within the deviation threshold range, differential braking backup control is initiated. After one control cycle, if the vehicle is determined to be stable based on the deviation threshold, the control flow ends; if the vehicle is determined to be unstable, the control continues to the next timing sequence until the vehicle stabilizes, at which point the control ends.

[0064] For specific details, please refer to the following: Figure 4The diagram illustrates a multi-objective collaborative framework integrating rear-wheel steering, drive torque control, and differential braking backup control. This framework includes: collecting driver intent information, such as steering wheel angle signals and throttle opening signals; calculating the target slip ratio A and target yaw rate B; determining the actual slip ratio a and actual yaw rate b based on the vehicle's actual motion state (e.g., wheel speed, vehicle speed, yaw rate, longitudinal acceleration, lateral acceleration, etc.); determining vehicle stability by calculating the slip ratio deviation Δa = Aa and the yaw rate deviation Δb = Bb; and determining vehicle stability based on these deviations. If the vehicle is unstable (Δa > first threshold, e.g., 3%, or Δb > second threshold, e.g., ±0.5°), slip ratio control and yaw rate stability control are implemented. Through a closed-loop slip ratio control and yaw rate stability control, the vehicle achieves a stable state in low-friction scenarios. When the rear wheel steering angle compensation value is greater than the maximum allowable value, differential braking measurement is triggered to brake the drive wheel with a higher slip ratio, generating a reverse yaw moment to stabilize the vehicle's yaw rate.

[0065] and Figure 4 Correspondingly, you can refer to the following at the same time. Figure 5 The diagram shows an overall coarse-grained control architecture. Here, ECU refers to the Electronic Control Unit, and VCU refers to the Vehicle Control Unit.

[0066] The vehicle control method provided in this application achieves stable control during low-traction start-up by integrating rear-wheel steering, drive, and braking control, and performing closed-loop control based on slip ratio deviation and yaw rate deviation. By increasing rear-wheel steering intervention to compensate for yaw torque, the vehicle's acceleration performance is improved, reducing the magnitude and frequency of driver steering wheel corrections and increasing driver confidence. The millisecond-level response of rear-wheel steering reduces energy consumption while effectively improving acceleration performance under low-traction conditions. The multi-actuator redundancy design and integrated rear-wheel steering, drive, and braking control ensure that even if one actuator fails, the remaining actuators can still maintain a certain level of anti-slip and yaw control (e.g., in case of brake failure, basic control is achieved through drive torque limiting and rear-wheel steering compensation).

[0067] Based on the same inventive concept, corresponding to any of the above-described embodiments, this application also provides a vehicle control device. The vehicle control device includes: a first control module, configured to control the driving torque of the wheels based on the actual slip ratio and a target slip ratio when the vehicle's low-traction start-up stability control function is activated, so that a first deviation between the target slip ratio and the actual slip ratio is maintained within a first preset range; and a second control module, configured to control the rear wheel steering angle based on the vehicle's actual yaw rate and a target yaw rate, so that a second deviation between the target yaw rate and the actual yaw rate is maintained within a second preset range.
