Sažetak
In this paper experimental results of testing slip-based traction control system (TCS) with an on-line road condition estimation are presented. TCS is designed for a car with in- wheel electric motors, so that estimation and control are implemented independently for each wheel thus enabling the optimal friction coefficient for every wheel, even if they are on different surfaces or have different tire characteristics. A road condition is approximated using a function which is estimated in the real-time and used as the input to the TCS. The design of the presented TCS is based on the wheel slip ratio, controlled to it's optimal value by a PI controller and with the addition of a feedforward branch for the transition response speed up. System is tested on a newly developed experimental setup consisting of the wheel with embedded (in-wheel) motor rolling on the metal drum loaded by the second motor simulating car behaviour.
