ABSTRACT:
A feedback control system for controlling the wheel slip of a vehicle having at least one of a plurality of wheels coupled to an internal combustion engine. An engine feedback control system and suspension feedback control system operate concurrently. The suspension feedback control system includes a plurality of hydraulic actuators each coupled to one of the wheels and each responsive to a separate command signal. In response to a detection of wheel slip, the suspension feedback control system applies both a downward normal force and lateral cornering force (unless the vehicle is traveling in a straight line) to each of the wheels. The engine feedback control system is responsive to a measurement of intake manifold pressure which is a predictor of engine torque output before it occurs. Accordingly, the engine feedback control system promptly reduces engine torque output during slip conditions for improving vehicular stability.
