Study on traction control in 4-wheel drive electric vehicle using a driving simulator

This paper proposed the maximum driving force control and evaluated MDFC with 4-wheel drive electric vehicles using a driving simulator. Maximum driving force control uses the mountain climbing method to control the torque that the driving force of the wheel can be maximized. The MDFC was evaluated on a low friction road surface in a driving simulator. The results of the slip ratio and vehicle speed showed that wheel slip was suppressed and the vehicle acceleration was improved.
