Abstract

$D^*$ criterion is defined as a reference of the handling quality and ride comfortableness for lateral-directional automobile motion. However it is generally difficult to obtain the satisfied handling quality and ride comfortableness based on $D^*$ criterion by conventional two wheel steering system. In this study, a design method of model matching control system is proposed to obtain the satisfied $D^*$ response of 4 Wheel Steering.
