The Output feedback linear quadratic regulator control is applied to the design of active suspension system using 7 DOF full car model. The performance index reflects the vehicle vertical movement, pitch and roll motion, and minimization of suspension stroke displacements in the rattle space. The elements of gain matrix are approximately decoupled so that each suspension requires only local information to generate the control force. The simulation results indicates that the output feedback LQ controller is more effective than purely passive or full state feedback active LQ controllers in following the road profile at the low frequency range and suppressing the road disturbance at the high frequency ranges.

In this paper, we designed a vehicle active suspension controller. Vehicle suspensions have various design objects with tradeoff among them and these objects cannot be satisfied under all driving conditions. We need to design a controller adapted to variable driving conditions changing the objects of vehicle suspensions. To design such a controller, we must be able to detect the current driving conditions and focus on the road frequencies giving us useful and important information about driving conditions. Detecting the road frequencies, we use the Fourier Transform. A unexpected driving change like a speed bump was also included to items the new designed controller must consider.

In this paper, the CLQR(Constrained LQR) controller, which considers the actuator saturation in a cross-product term of a given performance index for an automotive active suspension control has been proposed. The effects of actuator saturations have been reflected directly in the states by using the linear relation between the control input and states. The method proposed here is more effective and intuitive compared with the conventional schemes. The CLQR has been applied to designing an automotive active suspension control system to verify its effectiveness and practical aspects.

A two-degree-of-freedom quarter-car model is used as the basis for LQ and the proposed controller design for a semi-active suspension. The LQ controller results in the best rms performance trade-offs(as defined by performance index) between ride, handling and packaging requirements. In LQ controller, however, the conflict between road holding and ride comfort remains. The adaptive semi-active suspension control based on the road frequency are introduced in this paper. With this method, the trade-off between road holding and ride comfort can be relaxed. The road frequency is estimated by wavelet transform if rattle space signal. The simulation results show that the proposed controller is superior to the conventional LQ controller.

In this paper, we design a Linear Quadratic Gaussian(LQG) controller for active suspensions. We can improve the inherent suspension problem, trade-off between the ride quality and the suspension travel by selecting appropriate weights in the LQ-objective function. Using an optimization-algorithm, Evolution Strategy(ES), we find the proper control gains for selected frequencies, which have major effects on the vibrations of the vehicle's state variables. The frequencies and proper control gains are used for the neural network data. During a vehicle running, the trained on-line neural network is activated and provides the proper gains for non-trained frequencies.

In recent years, there has been an increasing intest in control of active automotive suspension systems with a goal of improving the ride comfort and safety. Many approaches for these purposes have used linearized models of the suspension's dynamics, allowing the use of linear control theory. However, the linearized model does not well descriibe the actual system behavior which is inherently nonlinear. The object of this study is to develop a neuro controlled active suspension for the ride quality improvement. After obtaining active control law using optimal control theory, we use the artificial neural network to train the neuro controller to learn the relation of road input and control force. Form the numerical results, we found that back propagation learning does show good pattern matching and vertical acceleration of the driver's seat and sprung mass.

An automotive suspension system generally behaves like a low frequency band-pass filter(0.5 - 10 Hz). Passengers are very sensitive to this frequency range in terms of ride quality and road holding ability. In this paper, a LQG/ LTR controller is suggested to improve the ride quality and road holding ability in the specified frequency rage. It has been found by numerical simulation that the ride quality and road holding ability can be improved in the frequency ranges of 0.5 - 3.0 Hz and 0.3 - 2.1 Hz respectively. In addition, a new approach using root locus to evaluate the stability robustness of the active suspension system is studied. It is shown that the stability robustness of the LQG/LTR controller designed in this paper is improved, compared to the passive system.

This paper proposes a new type of semi-active direct-drive valve(DDV) car suspension system using piezoelectric actuator associated with displacement amplifier. As a first step, controllable piezoelectric DDV damper is designed and governing equation of a quarter-vehicle suspension system consisting of sprung mass, spring, tire and the piezostack DDV damper is constructed. After deriving the equations of the motion, in order to control spool displacement and damping force the skyhook controller is designed and applied. The performance evaluation of the proposed semi-active suspension system is conducted with different displacement of spool. Then, the ride comfort analysis is undertaken in time domain with bump road profile.

본 연구에서는 반능동형 감쇠기의 작동기준을 설정하고 그것의 타당성을 조사 하는 것이 주목적이어서 속도에 대한 고려는 제외하였다.이때 반능동형 감쇠계가 고정된 감쇠계수를 갖는 감쇠기로 구성된 계보다 얼마만큼 성능이 향상되며 능동형 감 쇠기(감쇠계수를 제한된 영역내에서 순간순간 조절하여 변화시킬 수 있는 감쇠기)를 갖는 계에 얼마만큼 접근하는가가 비교되어진다.
