Traction Control System

Traction control is an important vehicle safety feature that prevents loss of traction and speed when excessive torque is applied to back wheels. The system uses sensors on front and back wheels to measure individual wheel speeds and determine if back wheels are spinning 5% faster or slower than the average of front wheels. If slip is detected, the system calculates optimal slip and provides necessary torque adjustment to back wheels to maintain traction and control of the vehicle.

Traction Control System

Abstract
Traction control is a very important feature in every vehicle. It ensures that the vehicle does not lose traction which leads to losing speed due to loss of traction in the back wheel caused by excess torque being applied in an effort to go faster. Traction control is an integral part of system that enables the vehicle to be moving as quickly as possible without hindrance. To implement the traction control we will be using sensors on both the front and the back wheels to measure the wheel speeds. Base on the measurement, we will determine if each of the back wheels is spinning either 5% faster or slower than the average speed of the front wheels combined. In this case our system will calculate the optimum slip and then provide necessary torque to the back wheels in order to prevent the car from losing traction. We decided to use the average of the front wheels as we did not want the car to lose speed on one side because one of the wheels in the front was moving too slow while taking a turn.
