We propose a hybrid Model Predictive Control (MPC) design for coordinated control of AFS and ESC. By formulating the vehicle dynamics with respect to the front and rear tire slip angles and by approximating the tire-force characteristics by piecewise affine functions, the vehicle dynamics are formulated as a linear hybrid dynamical system. This model is used to design a hybrid model predictive controller. The proposed model formulation allows one to visually analyze the stability region of the closed-loop system and to assess the stabilizing capability of the hybrid MPC controller. Simulations of the controller in closed-loop with an accurate nonlinear model are presented. date: 2009 date_type: published publication: Decision and Control publisher: IEEE pagerange: 7621-7626 event_title: 48th IEEE Conf. on Decision and Control event_location: 16th Dec. - 18th Dec 2009 event_dates: Shanghai, China id_number: 10.1109/CDC.2009.5400860 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-4244-3871-6 book_title: 48th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=5400860&tag=1 citation: Bernardini, Daniele and Di Cairano, Stefano and Bemporad, Alberto and Tseng, H.
