Power Steering system (EPS) at low cost design phase, a driver steering control
model has been established in this study. The proposed driver model employs
both the angle of upcoming road preview deviation and its derivative to calculate
the desired yaw rate. Based on lateral dynamics model, the feed-forward control
law has been designed, which product an expected steering wheel angle. To establish
the dynamic relation between drivers and the steering system, the inertia of
the human arm and the torque of the steering wheel are considered, and an interactive
feedback controller is obtained. Serpentine line simulation shows that the established
control system can effectively complete steering task and provide a closed-loop
simulation approach for evaluation the assistant power characteristic of the
