Abstract

An AWS (all-wheel-steering) system is applied to the articulated vehicle to satisfy the required steering performance. AWS ECU (electronic control unit) controls the hydraulic actuator according to vehicle driving environment, such as driver steering angle, articulating angle, and vehicle velocity. In this paper, the test platform devloped for the AWS ECU black box test in an HIL( hardware in the loop) environment is explained. Using the developed test platform, the control algorithm of the AWS ECU can be evaluated under the virtual driving condition of the articulated vehicle. Also, the maneuver of the vehicle is investigated by using the developed AWS ECU test.
