Abstract:
A method for ABS stability control, comprising the steps of:determining whether a first wheel is in an ABS mode, the first wheel being a first rear wheel; determining whether the first wheel is in an apply mode; determining whether a second parallel wheel is in the release mode, the second parallel wheel being a second rear wheel; calculating an adjusted wheel slip if the first wheel is in the ABS mode, the first wheel is in the apply mode, and the second parallel wheel is in the release mode; and determining a control mode for the first wheel using the adjusted wheel slip; wherein the step of calculating an adjusted wheel slip further comprises: selecting a slip offset as the lesser of a first constant K1, or a second constant K2 times vehicle speed with the product added to a third constant K3; and adding the slip offset to the measured wheel slip from the first rear wheel to calculate the adjusted wheel slip.
