Abstract :
It´s important to estimate the road condition to obtain better performances of the vehicular antiskid systems. A road condition identification system based on BP neural network was proposed in this paper to monitor the change of road surface situations in real time by using vehicle dynamics parameters, and an adjusting algorithm was put forward to amend the output of neural network. Offline simulation was done for several driving conditions by using the field test data, and most kinds of road surface were recognized correctly, which testified the validity of the system.
