Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of autonomous driving and intelligent chassis technology, specifically relating to a data-driven online estimation method and system for braking clearance in EMB systems. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the main methods for estimating brake clearance in electromechanical braking (EMB) systems include:
[0003] 1. Threshold-based detection methods: Current and torque-based methods are significantly affected by temperature, motor efficiency, and noise. Under the same operating conditions, the signal fluctuates greatly and there are abnormal jumps, which leads to detection errors and reduced reliability. At the same time, the threshold depends on the recognition logic and needs to be repeatedly calibrated for different vehicle models, which lacks adaptability and robustness.
[0004] 2. Offline fitting model method: This method relies on the quality and quantity of the fitted data, places high demands on the storage and computing resources of the real-time control system, and is very costly. At the same time, it cannot be updated online and is difficult to cope with changes in brake clearance caused by brake pad wear.
[0005] 3. Based on the RLS recursive algorithm: It is extremely sensitive to noise and cannot meet the requirements of stable online estimation; at the same time, the regression vector is highly coupled internally, and the differences in various values are too large, which leads to a sharp decline in the reliability of the estimated value.
[0006] Therefore, existing braking clearance estimation methods suffer from problems such as low accuracy, reliance on force sensors and offline calibration, lack of online adaptive capability, poor anti-interference ability, and numerical instability.
[0007] I. A search revealed that Chinese invention patent CN120277811A discloses a method for identifying brake gaps and estimating adaptive clamping force in an EMB system. This application differs from this one in the following ways: 1. Patent CN120277811A classifies brake gap types based on EMB contact time. It uses the motor torque balance equation and establishes a clamping force dynamic model using the motor's electromagnetic torque, angle, and angular velocity. Clamping force estimation is achieved through different types of extended state observers, with its core focus on the linkage between "gap classification + clamping force estimation." In contrast, this patent focuses on the online estimation of the brake gap itself. By exploring the correlation between motor current and rotation angle signals during the braking loading phase, it constructs a Legendre orthogonal polynomial nonlinear mapping model. Combined with an enhanced recursive least squares algorithm, it achieves online parameter identification and then directly analyzes the gap value through a zero-current extrapolation mechanism. The core technology emphasizes the accuracy and independence of gap estimation. 2. While patent CN120277811A achieves sensorless gap identification, it does not specify the accuracy index of gap estimation. Furthermore, its technical logic relies on the targeted design of the observer to match different gap types and is based on threshold judgment for identification, resulting in poor reliability and adaptability. In contrast, this patent eliminates the need for force sensors and offline calibration, explicitly achieving a steady-state estimation error of less than 0.6 rad (0.39%) for braking gap, and a relative root mean square error of less than 3.478 × 10⁻³ under large initial deviation conditions, demonstrating a greater advantage in balancing low cost and high accuracy. II. A search reveals that Chinese invention patent CN121062678A discloses a sensorless clamping force estimation method for EMB based on multi-signal fusion and displacement compensation, which differs from this application in the following ways:
[0008] 1. Patent CN121062678A, based on the mechanical model of the EMB system, achieves contact point detection through current-position information fusion, and then improves the clamping force estimation accuracy through position error compensation and backlash compensation. The core technology is the clamping force optimization strategy of "multi-signal fusion + multi-stage compensation". In contrast, this patent does not rely on contact point detection and subsequent compensation mechanisms. It can directly estimate the gap by using the polynomial mapping relationship between current and angle signals, combined with a dedicated identification algorithm. The technical path is simpler and avoids the cumulative errors that may be introduced by multiple compensation stages.
[0009] 2. The core objective of patent CN121062678A is to improve the clamping force estimation effect, with brake clearance related processing serving only as an auxiliary step in clamping force estimation. This patent, however, focuses on online brake clearance estimation as its core objective, building its technological advantage through clear accuracy indicators, while providing direct high-precision data support for clamping force control and clearance adaptive adjustment. Its technological positioning is more focused on the clearance parameter itself. III. A search reveals that Chinese invention patent CN118876927A discloses a multi-stage closed-loop control method and device for an EMB system based on a nonlinear disturbance observer, which differs from this application in the following ways:
[0010] 1. The core of patent CN118876927A is the design of differentiated closed-loop control strategies for different operating stages of EMB. In the braking gap elimination stage, it quickly eliminates the gap through a dual closed-loop system of speed loop and current loop, focusing on solving the braking response speed problem, with the goal of "rapid elimination" in gap handling. The core of this patent, however, is the "online accurate estimation" of the gap value. By establishing a precise mapping model of current-rotation angle, it achieves quantitative detection of the gap, rather than simply qualitative elimination, providing data for fine-tuning the gap.
[0011] 2. Patent CN118876927A achieves adaptive clearance adjustment through multi-closed-loop control, using contact angle and reference angle to control and achieve a fixed clearance. However, its adjustment basis does not explicitly include high-precision clearance estimation data. The high-precision clearance estimation method proposed in this patent can directly provide accurate clearance parameter input for this type of multi-stage control strategy, improving the adaptability and control accuracy of the control strategy from the bottom up. The two technologies are in a supporting and being supported relationship. IV. A search reveals that Chinese invention patent CN117341644A discloses an EMB system control method based on a three-closed-loop system and a load observer, which differs from this application in the following ways:
[0012] 1. Patent CN117341644A relies on a pressure sensor to detect the actual braking force, thereby determining the braking stage and switching the dual closed-loop control strategy. Its core is "sensor-assisted phased control," and its gap handling is implicit in the braking force judgment logic, without a separate gap estimation mechanism. In contrast, this patent eliminates the need for force or pressure sensors, constructing a separate online gap estimation model. High-precision gap detection can be achieved using only current signals, significantly reducing system costs.
[0013] 2. The technical advantages of patent CN117341644A are reflected in control aspects such as low torque jitter and smooth speed regulation. This patent not only achieves high-precision gap estimation but also provides a theoretical basis for the design of adaptive gap adjustment and control algorithms for EMB systems. Its technical value covers the entire chain of "parameter estimation - control support," and its application scope is wider. V. A search reveals CN118288958A, "An Automatic Brake Clearance Adjustment System and Method for Automotive EMB," which differs from this application in the following ways:
[0014] I. Patent CN118288958A monitors the braking clearance in real time by acquiring the displacement change of the roller screw nut. Its core relies on "mechanical structure displacement signal" for clearance detection, employing a cumulative sum of forward and reverse rotations and motor control based on a displacement threshold to maintain the braking clearance within a fixed range. However, its detection accuracy may be affected by mechanical transmission errors. In contrast, this patent constructs an estimation model based on the correlation between the motor current and rotation angle electrical signals. It eliminates the need for mechanical displacement detection components, avoiding mechanical error interference at the signal source level, and achieves higher estimation accuracy (steady-state error less than 0.6 rad).
[0015] Second, the key technology of patent CN118288958A is the closed-loop regulation mechanism of "gap monitoring + motor revolution adjustment". Gap monitoring is an auxiliary means of regulation. This patent takes online gap estimation technology as the core innovation point, which can not only support gap adjustment, but also provide basic data for the optimization of control algorithm of EMB system. The technological innovation focuses more on the estimation method itself, and the application scenarios are more flexible. Summary of the Invention
[0016] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a data-driven online estimation method and system for brake clearance in EMB systems. This overcomes issues such as low accuracy, reliance on force sensors and offline calibration, lack of online adaptive capability, poor anti-interference performance, and numerical instability.

[0122] Furthermore, to verify the effectiveness of the braking gap estimation method based on motor current fitting of this invention, and to verify the performance advantages of Legendre Enhanced RLS (LE-RLS) compared to traditional RLS, experimental verification was conducted, and the results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 As shown in (a), based on the measured clamping force-rotation angle data, offline polynomial fitting yields the measured braking gap as follows: , Figure 2 (b) shows the offline fitting results of the motor current-rotation angle relationship before and after data processing. The fitting results of the two are as follows: and This demonstrates the feasibility of decoupling modeling relying solely on current signals, and that preprocessing does not affect braking gap estimation, thus further improving the data quality of recursive fitting. Figure 2(c) The online estimation performance of LP-RLS and traditional RLS was compared. LP-RLS converged quickly to the vicinity of the reference value within about 5 braking cycles (cumulative loading of 10 s), and the final error was within 0.6 rad (0.39%), showing excellent convergence and stability. In contrast, traditional RLS has an ill-conditioned regression matrix due to the non-orthogonalization of the regression vector, strong coupling between parameters and large differences in magnitude. It is highly sensitive to measurement noise and the parameters continue to oscillate.
[0123] like Figure 3 As shown, the parameter recursion process of Legendre-RLS is illustrated. The orthogonal coefficients of each order converge rapidly within 5 braking cycles. The specific errors are shown in Table 1.
[0124] Experimental results show that the introduction of the Legendre orthogonal basis significantly improves the numerical conditions of the regression model, achieves parameter decoupling, and greatly enhances the robustness and convergence reliability of the algorithm under dynamic conditions.
[0125] To further evaluate the convergence robustness of the proposed Legendre-enhanced RLS algorithm under non-ideal initial conditions, a series of extreme initial deviations were set up for verification, based on measured initial rotation angles. Apply respectively , , and The offset was used to construct a scene far exceeding the actual initial zero point, and the result was as follows: Figure 4 As shown, although the initial deviation is as high as The algorithm converged successfully under all test conditions, and the steady-state estimation error was within [a certain range]. Within, the relative error is lower than This fully demonstrates that the algorithm is highly insensitive to initial deviations, and the relative root mean square error of the iteration results is less than 3.478×10⁻³ under the condition of large initial deviations.
[0126] In summary, this invention enables reliable estimation without precise initial values, significantly improving the adaptive capability and application flexibility of electromechanical braking systems. Furthermore, based on existing signal data, it achieves low-cost, online, and high-precision estimation of braking gaps in electromechanical braking systems.
[0127] This invention can be widely applied to online estimation of braking clearance in electromechanical braking systems of passenger cars, commercial vehicles, motorcycles, and all-electric flying cars.
