Abstract: A system is provided for implementing steering wheel controls, namely a center indicator on a decouplable steering wheel that is visible to the driver. The center indication controls provide a center indicator for a temporarily decouplable steering wheel, where the center indicator is visibly generated on the steering wheel. A system includes center indicator devices that are disposed along a perimeter on a steering wheel. A controller determines a position on the steering wheel that corresponds to a center position, and selects one of the plurality of center indicator devices at the determined center position on the steering wheel. The selected center indicator device produces feedback to the driver to indicate the center position on the steering wheel. Feedback from the center indicator allows drivers to be better aware of the steering wheel's position and to make safe and/or accurate maneuvers until the steering wheel is properly recoupled.

Abstract: A steering control method includes: detecting a steering angle of a steering wheel; calculating first steering reaction force which becomes greater when the detected steering angle is greater; calculating a delayed steering angle by delaying a phase of the detected steering angle; calculating second steering reaction force which becomes greater when an absolute value of a deviation angle being a deviation between the detected steering angle and the calculated delayed steering angle is greater; and applying steering reaction force based on a sum of the first steering reaction force and the second steering reaction force to the steering wheel.

Abstract: A control apparatus of a steering system for vehicles that controls a turning mechanism by using steering information communicated electrically, includes a turning angle control section that calculates a motor current command value to make a turning angle detected in the turning mechanism follow a target turning angle, and has a friction compensating section that calculates a compensation motor current command value for compensating a follow-up delay of the turning angle caused by a friction in the turning mechanism by performing filter processing to velocity information. The turning angle control section performs compensation by the compensation motor current command value in calculation of the motor current command value, and the control apparatus controls the turning mechanism based on the motor current command value.

Abstract: A steering counterforce device of steer-by-wire includes a shaft force estimator which estimates a shaft force of a steering actuator based on an electrical current value of the steering actuator causing steered wheels to steer, and a model steering force setter which sets a model steering force based on the shaft force estimated by the shaft force estimator. This steering counterforce device of steer-by-wire controls electrical current supplied to a steering counterforce actuator which grants counterforce torque to an operator, so that steering torque of the operator of steer-by-wire becomes a model steering force set by the model steering force setter.

Abstract: An actual steering ratio, which is a linkage relationship between a steering target wheel and a steering wheel, is controlled based on a setting steering ratio. Then, when a “mismatch” occurs between the actual steering ratio and the setting steering ratio due to an emergent avoidance motion, a steering control apparatus corrects the setting steering ratio using a corrected steering ratio so as to reduce the “mismatch”, thereby improving the consistency of the linkage relationship between a driver's steering operation and the steering target wheel, allowing the relationship between a rotational angle of the steering wheel and a steering angle of the steering target wheel to match the steering ratio, and thus reducing an uncomfortable feeling evoked in a driver.

Abstract: A steer-by-wire steering system for a vehicle includes a steering input device, a feedback actuator, and a steering assembly that can be connected to at least one steerable vehicle wheel. The steering assembly has a steering actuator device, a control device, and a feedback actuator monitoring device. The steer-by-wire steering system further has a synchronization monitoring device that is designed and configured, in at least one operating state of the steer-by-wire steering system, to determine a synchronization offset between a current position of the steering input device and a current position of the steering actuator device and/or of the at least one steerable vehicle wheel. The control device is further designed and configured, in at least one operating state of the steer-by-wire steering system, to further control the steering actuator device in accordance with the synchronization offset determined by the synchronization monitoring device.
