Control Performance Analysis of Power Steering System Electromechanical Dynamics (2309.13623v1)

Abstract: Modern power steering systems employ an electric motor drive system to provide torque assistance to the driver. The closed-loop mechanical system dynamics that impact stability, performance and steering feel are significantly impacted by the electrical dynamics of the actuator depending on the structure and tuning of the motor torque controller. This paper presents an integrated approach to the analysis of this electromechanical dynamic control interaction through mathematical modeling which is confirmed with simulations.
