On-board identification of tyre cornering stiffness using dual Kalman filter and GPS

Cornering stiffness is one of the important vehicle parameters for steering control of a vehicle. Accurate vehicle parameters are essential for a high performance of vehicle control because vehicle control is significantly affected by variations in vehicle parameters. In this study, a novel identification method is proposed using a dual Kalman filter algorithm and a GPS (global positioning system) measurement system to estimate the cornering stiffness for on-board identification. Performance of the identification method is examined with experiments, and the estimation results show that this identification method is effective on both a flat road and a banked curve road.
