Abstract

In the vehicle steering system, we can consider two methods to steer the vehicle. One is a front wheel steering(FWS), the other is a four wheel steering(4WS). The four wheel steering method has been recently introduced to improve the steering performance. In this paper, we present a design of the four wheel steering controller. First, we constructed the neural network two degree of freedom PID controller to control the 4WS system. Then we compared the performance of conventional PID controller with our proposed controller in terms of yaw rate and side slip velocity. The computer simulation results show that 4WS system controlled by the proposed controller has well driving performances than the other.
