Substitute ( ) s in equation (12) with corresponding
formula under three different adherent conditions, we get
fixed controller structure corresponding high adhesion fixed
mode, medium adhesion fixed model, low adhesion fixed
model respectively.
2.2. Design of adaptive model controller
For the adaptive model in multiple model controller,
its model structure and parameters are unknown. In order to
improve system robustness, and estimate parameters of
system model more accurately, we design adaptive model
controller via backstepping approach. Equation (9) and (10)
constitute ABS model basing on wheel slip ratio.
To simplify controller design, the dual-linear -s
model is adopted (shown as Figure 2) in the design.

The control variable in fixed model ABS controller
and adaptive model ABS controller is the change of brake
torque, but practical ABS is not directly controlled through
brake braking torque. It is necessary to change control
signal from brake torque into modulator control signal in
building, dumping and holing modes. We adapted the pulse
width modulation (PMW) to realize the switch shown as

control importance of current and past measurement in
equation (24).
At every instant, when the model j can make index
function equation (24) get minimum value, the model j
controller become the current controller. If the current
controller is adaptive one, it need not reset parameter value.
But if fixed model controller is in using, the adaptive model
initial value should be reset according to table 1, and the
adaptive model performance function is also changed into
fixed model performance function corresponding to the
current controller. The switching into fixed model controller
can improve system dynamic response speed, and the
adaptive model controller can assure system convergence.
The stability of nonlinear multiple model controller has not
been perfectly proved in theory. But from the design
process, our system can meet requirement of Lyapunov
asymptotic stability. The following simulation can also

support this aspect.

3. Simulation results analysis
In this section simulation results show the MMAC
method can improve the ABS performance by comparison
with the conventional logic threshold approach. A quarter
vehicle model was used in simulation under three different
adherent conditions (high, medium and low adhesion) using
ABS MMAC controller. Through comparison, we find both
methods can prevent wheel from locking, but the MMAC
method can control slip ratio more accurately, reduce wheel
speed fluctuation and track the optimal slip ratio under
changing condition. With all these advantages, the MMAC
can make vehicle experience bigger average deceleration
and smaller braking distance consequently. For simulation
results under transition coefficient surface, the MMAC
method can also exhibit satisfied robustness. When the
target slip ratio is changed, simulation results indicate the
tracking control can realized using MMAC method. But
results also reflect that, when target slip ratio is located in
unstable range and has a bigger deviation amplitude with
the optimal value, the wheel can produce serious fluctuation.
This condition suggest the importance of online estimation
of optimal slip ratio, for details about this point, please
refer to paper [9].
4. Conclusions
The ABS MMAC method has higher robust
adaptability, which helps the braking wheel keep good
stability of slip ratio, hence improve ABS control
performance effectively.
