Performance of emergency steer assist in front wheel and rear wheel steering vehicle
2014
A first step towards autonomous rear-end collision avoidance is to start providing natural support
to driver in avoiding collision by steering and braking intervention. The proposed system detects
slower-moving and stationary vehicles ahead and classifies the risk of having a rear-end-collision.
If the risk is high and there is insufficient space to avoid a collision by braking only, the system
helps the driver to steer around the obstacle by overlaying steering torque and braking individual
wheels. Two prototype vehicles have been tested for emergency steer assist. One prototype vehicle,
equipped with electric power steering system, adds overlay steering torque to support driver in
avoiding collision. Another prototype vehicle, equipped with rear wheel steering, adds rear
steering angle to support driver in avoiding collision.
