Weight Estimation through Frequency Analysis

Johansson, Hampus, Höglund, Nicklas January 2009 (has links)
<p>The weight of a heavy duty vehicle plays an important role when dealing with different control systems. Examples of control units in a truck that need this parameter are the ones used to control the brakes, the engine and the gearbox. An accurate estimation of the weight leads not only to a more fuel efficient and safer transport, but also assures the driver that current law limits are not exceeded. The weight can be estimated with pretty good accuracy if the truck is equipped with air suspension. In trucks that lack this type of suspension other methods are used to estimate the weight. At present these methods are inaccurate. In this thesis a new method where the weight is to be estimated through frequency analysis of the truck's driveline is developed and evaluated.</p>
