Abstract

The tire-road adhesion coefficient (TRAC) is crucial for vehicle decision-making and active safety control. Existing TRAC estimation methods face issues like inaccurate dynamic models and unreliable road-based classification. In this study, a hybrid dynamics-data estimation (HDDE) method is proposed. Firstly, an Adaptive Cubature Kalman Filter (ACKF) is designed to estimate the coefficient and vehicle states considering vehicle and tire dynamics. Secondly, a Support Vector Regression (SVR) model accounting for water film height is developed, as the water film effect significantly impacts tire-road interactions. Thirdly, a fusion strategy based on the confidence levels of the ACKF and SVR results is presented to optimize the TRAC estimated values. Finally, co-simulation tests on the CarSim and MATLAB platform in typical lateral maneuver scenarios show that the HDDE method improves the estimation accuracy and vehicle stability, outperforming traditional methods.
