Cloud-Aided State Estimation of A Full-Car Semi-Active Suspension System

In this work, we investigate a state estimation problem for a full-car semi-active suspension system. To account for the complex calculation and optimization problems, a vehicle-to- cloud-to-vehicle (V2C2V) scheme is utilized. Moving horizon estimation is introduced for the state estimation system design. All the optimization problems are solved in a remotely-embedded agent with high computational ability. Measurements and state estimates are transmitted between the vehicle and the remote agent via networked communication channels. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated via a set of simulations.
