Abstract

The development of advanced vehicle safety systems is a major research focus area in the road transport sector today. Accurate knowledge of the variables involved in vehicle dynamics is key to designing reliable controllers that help improve vehicle stability and save lives. Some of them cannot be measured directly by sensors installed in series production vehicles due to their high cost, therefore estimators or output-feedback controllers must be considered. As sensors and actuators are usually located far from each other, signals must be sent through a communication network. Since a low-cost architecture is proposed, an event-triggering mechanism must be considered to reduce the network communication resources usage and lower transmission delays. Moreover, as low-cost systems are imperfect, the proposed control method has to be tolerant against actuator faults.
