Abstract:
Four-wheel independent steering system (4WIS) is a development trend due to its agility, safety, and capability to achieve vehicle smart control. However, improving the synchronization and tracking performance of 4WIS is a great challenge for its multivariable and nonlinear characteristics. To avoid four-wheel asynchrony and decline in tracking performance, a synchronization and tracking control strategy of 4WIS system based on improved model predictive control (MPC) method is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the system mathematical models are established. Next, the synchronization and tracking controller based on MPC and alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is designed to enhance system performance. Finally, strategy performance is validated by simulation, which indicates that the proposed strategy increases the 4WIS synchronization and tracking performance.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
