Abstract

This study discusses steering control for motorcycles using Model Matching Control (MMC) to improve transient characteristics. By examining computer simulation with a simple motorcycle model, the MMC performs the desired rolling angle generated by the steering torque of the feed-forward control. Increasing natural frequency of the reference model improves the tracking performance of the rolling angle, and increasing damping ratio stabilizes the response. The MMC shortens the rise time of the rolling angle in comparison with the conventional control without considering transient characteristics. The MMC also performs the robustness to the parameter uncertainty.
