Dynamic Control Applied to a Laboratory Antilock Braking System

الملخص EN

The control of an antilock braking system is a difficult problem due to the existence of nonlinear dynamics and uncertainties of its characteristics.

To overcome these issues, in this work, a dynamic nonlinear controller is proposed, based on a nonlinear observer.

To evaluate its performance, this controller has been implemented on an ABS Laboratory setup, representing a quarter car model.

The nonlinear observer reconstructs some of the state variables of the setup, assumed not measurable, to establish a fair benchmark for an ABS system of a real automobile.

The dynamic controller ensures exponential convergence of the state estimation, as well as robustness with respect to parameter variations.
