Latest ArticlesTo address the issues of poor tracking accuracy and driving stability caused by uncertain model parameters, modeling errors, and external disturbances, this paper proposes a motion control method for intelligent vehicles based on horizontal and longitudinal dual preview PID compensation. Firstly, an LQR(Linear Quadratic Regulator lateral motion controller is established using a path tracking error model to address angle compensation. This is achieved through a lateral previewing PID controller, utilizing the lateral deviation of the preview point as input. Secondly, a longitudinal motion controller is designed based on model-independent fuzzy theory to track vehicle speed. A previewing PID controller is established to compensate for vehicle speed using the longitudinal deviation of the preview point as input. Finally, the proposed method is validated through simulation under with uniform accelerated double lane shift. Simulation results demonstrate that the intelligent vehicle motion controller based on horizontal and longitudinal dual preview PID compensation achieves higher tracking accuracy and driving stability under conditions of high speed and large curvature during double lane shifts.
When using the Random Forest (RF) algorithm to estimate the road adhesion coefficient, there are issues such as insufficient optimization of feature selection during model construction and insufficient diversity in the ensemble of decision trees. To address this issue, a method based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to improve RF is proposed, and the algorithmic process is presented. An RF model for estimating the road adhesion coefficient is established, and the PSO algorithm is used to optimize the parameter configuration of RF, including key factors such as the number of features of each tree and the number of trees, so as to enhance the diversity and generalization capabilities of the model. At last, a joint simulation model is built on the MATLAB/Simulink platform for experiments. The comparative experimental results show that the random forest road adhesion coefficient estimation method based on PSO-RF can overcome the limitations of the traditional RF methods, and both the estimation accuracy and stability have been significantly improved.
To address signal crosstalk and reflection phenomena caused by the wiring layout of automotive Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), a simulation software Cadence is utilized to model the reflection phenomena of high-speed signal lines. The causes of signal reflection are analyzed, and impedance matching schemes for reflection are employed in the termination design. The effects of 4 different types of terminations, namely series termination, Thevenin termination, RC termination, and diode termination, on the signal quality in transmission lines are compared. Additionally, enhancements are made to power integrity through optimized power plane design, which significantly enhances the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) performance of the PCB. The study demonstrates that signal integrity, power integrity, and electromagnetic interference are interrelated and mutually constraining. Conducting reliability designs for these 3 aspects by combining stimulation data can significantly improve the EMC performance of PCBs.

The results show that the suppression method proposed in this paper can effectively suppress the electromagnetic interference of switching power supply.
