INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CONTROL, AUTOMATION AND SYSTEMS VOL. 1, NO.1, JANUARY 2012 41 Car Suspension Control Systems: Basic Principles Ayman A. Aly Abstract—increased competition on the automotive In this review, an automatic suspension system for a market has forced companies to research alternative quarter car is explored to highlight the different strategies to classical passive suspension systems. In technological processes used for suspension systems such order to improve handling and comfort performance, as shown in Fig.1. instead of a conventional static spring and damper system, semi-active and active systems are being developed. The paper has been written in two parts. This first part reviews the basic types of car suspension systems which range from simple spring-dampers, through semi-active dampers, and active suspensions systems. As the purpose of a suspension system is to support the vehicle body and increase ride comfort. The second part discusses the conflicting of these two requirements. Index Terms—Active Suspensions; Vehicle System; rid comfort. I. INTRODUCTION An active suspension system possesses the ability to reduce acceleration of sprung mass continuously as well as to minimize suspension deflection, which results in Fig.1. a. Schematic quarter car model, [2] improvement of tire grip with the road surface, thus, brake, traction control and vehicle maneuverability can be considerably improved. Today, a rebellious race is taking place among
