ABSTRACT:
A rear wheel steering angle control system for a 4WS vehicle is provided. This system includes a first circuit for deriving a locus defined by a specific point provided on the front end of the vehicle, a second circuit for deriving a locus defined by a specific point provided on the rear end of the vehicle, a third circuit for providing a target steering angle for the rear wheels so that a rear corner does not overhang outwardly during turning, and a controller for controlling an actual angle for steering the rear wheels. The third circuit determines the target steering angle so as to restrict the magnitude of offset of the rear specific point from the locus of the front specific point. The controller steers the rear wheels by the target steering angle to restrict the magnitude of overhang of the rear end of the vehicle and enables the vehicle to turn within the minimum possible turning circle.
