ABSTRACT:
Road surface friction is sensed by measuring strain on a structure of a vehicle in the vicinity of a wheel of the vehicle. Road surface friction coefficient is determined by measuring strain on a structure of a vehicle in the vicinity of a wheel of the vehicle thereby to produce signal outputs proportional to road surface frictional force and vertical load and calculating the road surface friction coefficient from the outputs.
