Road Recognition Based on Vehicle Vibration Signal and Comfortable Speed Strategy Formulation Using ISA Algorithm.

When a vehicle is being driven, it is excited by the road roughness and generates its own vibration. In order to improve the vehicle's riding comfort and the physical-mental health of passengers in the vehicle, this paper proposes a formulation method for a comfortable speed strategy and the technical route of its application. According to international standard ISO 2631-1, the relationship between the weighted root-mean-square acceleration value and comfortable vehicle speed is analyzed. The simulation test platform of the road roughness signal and vehicle vibration signal is built by using the filtering white noise method and the second Lagrange equation through Matlab/Simulink. Combined with the simulation platform, this paper extracts seven characteristics with statistical properties from the time-domain signal and obtains 500 sample data. Random forest (RF), extreme learning machine (ELM), and radial basis function neural network (RBF-NN) are applied to identify roads. Two comfortable speed strategy formulation methods based on the improved simulated annealing (ISA) algorithm are proposed and compared according to the solution effect of each grade of comfortable speed. The results show that the simulated signals of each grade road roughness are accurate. Road recognition can be effectively carried out using the statistical characteristics of vehicle vibration acceleration signals. ELM has high recognition accuracy and fast execution speed. The ISA-II algorithm has a low solution error of comfortable speed and a low computation time. The comfortable speed of the research vehicle on different road grades showed a great difference.
