Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system for stabilizing a sway of a trailer attached to a vehicle. In one embodiment, the system includes a controller, a plurality of sensors in electronic communication with the controller and transmitting sensor data to the controller, a torque vectoring device in electronic communication with the controller, and a computer readable memory storing instructions executed by the controller. The instructions cause the controller to evaluate the sensor data received from the sensors to determine a current vehicle yaw rate, a target vehicle yaw rate, and a yaw rate error of the vehicle. The instructions further cause the controller to determine if the vehicle is traveling in a straight line, to determine a torque distribution signal, and to transmit this signal to the torque vectoring device to stabilize the sway of the trailer without braking the vehicle.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for stabilizing a sway of a trailer attached to a vehicle, the system comprising: a first controller; a plurality of sensors in electronic communication with the first controller, each of the sensors transmitting sensor data to the first controller; a first non-transitory computer readable memory storing instructions that, when executed by the first controller, cause the first controller to: evaluate the sensor data received from the sensors to…
