Vehicle Lateral Control Using Steering Angle Limits Across Models

The patent implements a universal lateral control system that can adapt to multiple steering systems through automatic identification and parameter calibration. The system uses a identification module to recognize different steering system types and automatically adjusts control parameters accordingly, eliminating the need for separate control systems for each vehicle model while maintaining optimal control precision across different platforms

The patent employs parameter-based adaptation where the core control system remains unchanged but control parameters (such as maximum steering angle, response thresholds, and calibration factors) are automatically adjusted based on the identified steering system type. This approach allows versatility across different vehicle models while minimizing development costs, as only parameter sets need to be stored and selected rather than modifying the underlying control algorithm for each platform

The patent implements an automatic identification and self-calibration mechanism where the system autonomously identifies the steering system type through sensor data analysis and automatically selects or adjusts the appropriate control parameters without requiring manual calibration procedures. This self-service approach maintains adaptability across different steering systems while significantly reducing system complexity and eliminating time-consuming manual calibration steps
