Abstract:

In the electric power steering (EPS) system, low-frequency disturbances such as road resistance, irregular mechanical friction, and changing motor parameters can cause steering wheel torque fluctuation and discontinuity. In order to improve the steering wheel torque smoothness, an improved torque control method of an EPS motor is proposed in the paper. A target torque algorithm is established, which is related to steering process parameters such as steering wheel angle and angular speed. Then, a target torque closed-loop control strategy based on the improved ADRC is designed to estimate and compensate the internal and external disturbance of the system, so as to reduce the impact of the disturbance on the steering torque. The simulation results show that the responsiveness and anti-interference ability of the improved ADRC is better than that of the conventional ADRC and PI. The vehicle experiment shows that the proposed control method has good motor current stability, steering torque smoothness, and flexibility when there is low-frequency disturbance.
