Abstract :
In this paper, a new active suspension control scheme is proposed in which the tire deflections are not required. The controller has good property that we can specify a location where the ride comfort becomes best. To achieve this end, a combined ideal vehicle is designed. In the ideal vehicle, the location where ride comfort becomes best can be moved by setting only one design parameter. Next, to force the real vehicle track the motion of the combined ideal vehicle, a robust tracking controller is proposed.
