MODEL AND SIGNAL BASED SUPERVISION OF COMPONENTS OF CARS

In this paper methods for fault diagnosis of car components are presented. Model based methods like parameter estimation can be used for an estimation of the process coefficients. By dividing the nonlinear characteristic curve into several sections good estimation results can be achieved and a diagnosis of the shock absorber be performed. Signal spectra estimation for detection of tire pressure loss requires only an accelerometer to measure the vertical acceleration of the wheel. The presented results were obtained with measured data drawn from a test rig and a driving car. The proposed methods are suited for an on-line supervision of the car as well as for technical inspection, e.g., in workshops.
