Anti-lock Braking System
What is (ABS)?
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is an automobile safety system prevent the wheels of a vehicle locking as brake pedal pressure is applied - often suddenly in an emergency or short stopping distance. This enables the driver to have steering control, preventing skidding and loss of traction.
Anti-lock Braking System
History of ABS
• 1929 :- ABS was first developed for aircraft by the French automobile and aircraft pioneer Gabriel Voisin, as threshold braking on airplanes is nearly impossible.
• 1936: German company Bosch is awarded a patent an “Apparatus for preventing lock-braking of wheels in a motor vehicle”.
• 1936-: Bosch and Mercedes-Benz partner - R&D into ABS.• 1972: WABCO partners with Mercedes-Benz developing
first ABS for trucks.• 1978: First production-line installation of ABS into
Mercedes and BMW vehicles.• 1981: 100,000 Bosch ABS installed.• 1985: First ABS installed on US vehicles.

Principles for ABS Operation
When the brake pedal is depressed during driving, the wheel speed decreases and the vehicle speed does as well. The decrease in the vehicle speed, however, is not always proportional to the decrease in the wheel speed. The non-correspondence between the wheel speed and vehicle speed is called “slip” and the magnitude of the slip is expressed by the “slip ratio” which is defined as follows:
Slip ratio = (Vehicle speed – Wheel speed)/Vehicle speed × 100%
When the slip ratio is 0%, the vehicle speed corresponds exactly to the wheel speed. When it is 100%, the wheels are completely locking (rotating at a zero speed) while the vehicle is moving.
See Fig 2.
Anti-lock Braking System Figure 2. Illustration of the relationship between braking coefficient and wheel slip
•The best braking action occurs at between 10-20%.
•If vehicle speed and wheel speed is the same wheel slippage is 0%
•A lock-up wheel will have a wheel slippage of 100%

Principles for ABS Operation
• Figure 2 shows the relationship between braking co-efficient and wheel slip. It is shown that the slide values for stopping/traction force are proportionately higher than the slide values for cornering/steering force. A locked-up wheel provides low road handling force and minimal steering force.

ABS Components
• ABS brake system are – Integrated
• An integrated system has the master cylinder and control valve assembly made together.
– Nonintegrated• A nonintegrated has the master
cylinder and control valve assembly made separate.
Anti-lock Braking System
ABS Components
• ABS systems consist of 4 primary components:1- ABS Controller; the brains of the system. ABS Controllers are a computer that reads the inputs and then controls the system to keep the wheels from locking up and skidding.
2- ABS Speed Sensors; there are generally one on each wheel (sometimes they are located on the differential). It detects a change in acceleration in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and outputs it to the ABSCM as a voltage signal.
Anti-lock Braking System
ABS Components
3- ABS Modulator/Valves; some system have separate valves for each wheel with a modulator to control them. Other systems they are combined. In either case they work with the controller and the pump to add or release pressure from the individual wheels brakes to control the braking.
4- ABS Pumps; since the ABS modulator/valves can release pressure from the individual wheels brakes there needs to be a way to restore the pressure when required. That is what the ABS pumps job is. When the pump is cycling, the driver may experience a slight pedal vibration. This cycling is happening many times per second and this slight vibration is natural.

How does ABS work?
Figure 3. ABS Operating Diagram
We will discuss how one of the simpler system works.
Sensors at each of the four wheels sense the rotation of the wheel. Too much brake application wheel stop rotating Sensors ECU releases brake line pressure wheel turns again. then ECU applies pressure again stops the rotation of the wheel
releases it again and so onNB: This releasing and re-application or pulsing of brake pressure
happens 20-30 times per second or more. This keeps the wheel just at the limit before locking up and
skidding no matter ABS system can maintain extremely high static pressure and must be
disabled before attempting repairs.

Design Challenges
ABS control is highly nonlinear control problem due to the complicated relationship between its components and parameters. The research that has been carried out in ABS control systems covers a broad range of issues and challenges. Many different control methods for ABS have been developed and research on improved control methods is continuing. Most of these approaches require system models, and some of them cannot achieve satisfactory performance under the changes of various road conditions. While soft computing methods like Fuzzy control doesn’t need a precise model. A brief idea of how soft computing is employed in ABS control is given.

Design Challenges
Fuzzy control :Is Intelligent control systems can be used in ABS control to emulate the qualitative aspects of human knowledge with several advantages such as robustness, universal approximation theorem and rule-based algorithms.
Anti-lock Braking System
Advantages & Disadvantages
• Advantages:
1. It allows the driver to maintain directional stability and control over steering during braking
2. Safe and effective
3. Automatically changes the brake fluid pressure at each wheel to maintain optimum brake performance.
4. ABS absorbs the unwanted turbulence shock waves and modulates the pulses thus permitting the wheel to continue turning under maximum braking pressure
Anti-lock Braking System
Advantages & Disadvantages• Disadvantages1. Stop Times - Anti-lock brakes are
made to provide for surer braking in slippery conditions. However, some drivers report that they find the stopping distances for regular conditions are lengthened by their ABS system, either because there may be errors in the system, or because noise of the ABS may contribute to the driver not braking at the same rate.
2. Delicate Systems - It's easy to cause a problem in an ABS system by messing around with the brakes. Problems include disorientation of the ABS system, where a compensating brake sensor causes the vehicle to shudder, make loud noise or generally brake worse.
Anti-lock Braking System
Advantages & Disadvantages
3. Cost - An ABS can be expensive to maintain. Expensive sensors on each wheel can cost hundreds of dollars to fix if they get out of calibration or develop other problems. For some, this is a big reason to decline an ABS in a vehicle.
4. System damage - A variety of factors can cause the system to be less effective, and can present with everything from shuddering of the vehicle to loud noises while trying to stop
Anti-lock Braking System
ABS Problems
Problems with ABSThe sensors on the wheels might get contaminated by metallic dust. When this condition occurs the sensors become less efficient in picking up problems. In modern ABS systems, two more sensors are added to help:
wheel angle sensor, gyroscopic sensor
Anti-lock Braking System
ABS Problems
The idea behind this is that when the gyroscopic sensor detects that the car’s direction is not the same as what the wheel sensor reports, the ABS software will cut in to brake the necessary wheel in order to help the car go the direction the driver intends.
Anti-lock Braking System
General information.
Statistics show that approximately 40 % of automobile accidents are due to skidding.
Skidding , vehicle instability, steer inability and long distance stopping, These problems commonly occur on vehicle with conventional brake system which can be avoided by adding devices called ABS.
If there is an ABS failure, the system will revert to normal brake operation. Normally the ABS warning light will turn on and let the driver know there is a fault.
Anti-lock Braking System
Summary
The antilock braking system controls braking force by controlling the hydraulic pressure of the braking system, so that the wheels do not lock during braking.The antilock braking system prevents wheels locking or skidding, no matter how hard brakes are applied, or how slippery the road surface. Steering stays under control and stopping distances are generally reduced.
