A NEW STATE SPACE DESCRIPTION TO CONTROL ACTIVE SUSPENSION OF GROUND VEHICLES

In order to achieve good dynamic performance, ground vehicles must converge quickly to the equilibrium state which changes according to changes of coordinates of road surfaces. Though it is possible to make vehicles converge quickly to the equilibrium state if rigorous information of the changes of the equilibrium state can be obtained quickly, it is difficult generally to obtain the rigorous information. However, road surfaces can be recognized to have many waves with various frequencies. Thus good dynamic performance can be achieved without the information of the changes of the equilibrium state if control systems are designed so that suspension strokes respond along only high frequency waves of road surfaces. In this paper, a new state space description to design control systems in which suspension strokes respond along only high frequency waves is proposed. (A)
