Abstract :
A control for vehicle steering assistance has been developed in this paper to help the driver keep the lane during inattention periods. Activated by the front wheels exceeding a predefined central lane strip, the control guarantees to maintain the vehicle within an extended strip in the middle of the lane. Moreover, the assistance torque and the values of the state are bounded for the transient response. The designed control has been obtained as a result of a LMI convex optimization problem
