Abstract :
Chassis multi-agent system (MAS) integrated cooperation control was presented in this study in order to satisfied the cooperation control request about suspension and steering by vehicle dynamic performance. For eliminate mutual interference between semi-active suspension (SAS) and electric power steering (EPS), SAS, EPS, and system (SYS) agents were being built out. MAS cooperation control framework was proposed based on agent template JATLite. For illustrate clearly treatment process and resolve conflict model of SYS agent cooperative control SAS agent and EPS agent, connected MATLAB/Simulink to simulate feasibility of cooperation control. And experimented on vehicle test, contrasted experimentation results of adaptive fuzzy and MAS integrated control. The results show that MAS integrated cooperation control can be effectively employed to a vehicle to improve both riding comfort and handling stability.
