Vehicles equipped with electric powered steering system have defects of inadequate-return-steering at low speed and over-return-steering at high speed. To solve the problem, an active return-to-center control method based on steering angle information was proposed from an engineering point of view. In this method, moments and speeds of the steering wheel are used for returning state recognition. Upon this, a double-closed-loop (angle-speed of steering wheel) control strategy for returning compensation is presented. The results of simulation verification and real vehicle test show that the control method can make the steering wheel return to center position quickly with less inadequacy and overshoot.
