As a key technology for intelligent vehicles, automatic parking is becoming increasingly popular in the area of research. Automatic parking technology is available for safe and quick parking operations without a driver, and improving the driving comfort while greatly reducing the probability of parking accidents. An automatic parking path planning and tracking control method is proposed in this paper to resolve the following issues presented in the existing automatic parking systems, that is, low degree of automation in vehicle control; lack of conformity between segmented path planning and real vehicle motion models; and low success rates of parking due to poor path tracking. To this end, this paper innovatively proposes preview correction which can be applied to parking path planning, and detects the curvature outliers in the parking path through the preview algorithm. In addition, it is also available for correction in advance to optimize the reasonable parking path. Meanwhile, the dual sliding mode variable structure control algorithm is used to formulate path tracking control strategies to improve the path tracking control effect and the vehicle control automation. Based on the above algorithm, an automatic parking system was developed and the real vehicle test was completed, thus exploring a highly intelligent automatic parking technology roadmap. This paper provides two key aspects of system solutions for an automatic parking system, i.e., parking path planning and path tracking control.

This paper describes a method for vehicle yaw rate estimation using two accelerometers and a steer angle sensor. This yaw rate estimate can be used as an inexpensive alternative to commercial yaw rate sensors in vehicle control applications. The proposed method combines two complementary approaches to yaw rate estimation using accelerometers. This new method is superior to either method used by itself. This paper presents the new approach, supporting analyses, simulation results and experimental validation. The simulation results are based upon both linear and nonlinear vehicle dynamics models and include important effects such as sensor drift and noise, disturbances acting on the vehicle, and model uncertainties. The experimental validation is based on test data from a specially instrumented vehicle driven on a test track. These results indicate that the proposed yaw rate estimation scheme performs well for a wide range of operating conditions and is not difficult to implement.

In this study, in order to improve steering stability during turning, we devised an inner and outer wheel driving force control system that is based on the steering angle and steering angular velocity, and verified its effectiveness via running tests. In the driving force control system based on steering angle, the inner wheel driving force is weakened in proportion to the steering angle during a turn, and the difference in driving force is applied to the inner and outer wheels by strengthening the outer wheel driving force. In the driving force control (based on steering angular velocity), the value obtained by multiplying the driving force constant and the steering angular velocity,  that differentiates the driver steering input during turning output as the driving force of the inner and outer wheels. By controlling the driving force of the inner and outer wheels, it reduces the maximum steering angle by 40 deg and it became possible to improve the cornering marginal performance and improve the steering stability at the J-turn. In the pylon slalom it reduces the maximum steering angle by 45 deg and it became possible to improve the responsiveness of the vehicle. Control by steering angle is effective during steady turning, while control by steering angular velocity is effective during sharp turning. The inner and outer wheel driving force control are expected to further improve steering stability.
