Abstract

This paper proposes a linear quadratic controller based on particle swarm algorithm for the rear wheel control of four-wheel steering vehicle. Particle swarm optimization with fitness functions is used to optimize the coefficients of the weight matrix offline. The fuzzy rules following the controller is used if the road condition is terrible. The simulation results show that the LQR control model based on particle swarm optimization makes the trajectory tracking of the vehicle better and the side slip angle of the vehicle lower. It can be proved that the controller has positive effect on handling stability of the vehicle and safety of drivers.
