Abstract :
A new solution for preventing slippage in heavy duty off road vehicles with hydrostatic power transmission is proposed. An embedded distributed fuzzy logic control system has been employed to detect slipping wheels and to control the braking of slipping wheels in order to minimize wheel slippage. The whole system has been integrated in a 2-ton city tractor and resides on four Motorola 68332-based wheel processors
