The invention concerns a lateral velocity estimator based on a novel neural network that is designed with a structure in accordance with kinematics principles.
The new neural network estimates lateral velocity with high accuracy by a generalization of kinematics equations and can be trained with little data. The kinematics structure on which it is based improves the robustness of lateral velocity estimation, ensuring appropriate accuracies even when the vehicle type varies.
The invention uses the measurement of yaw rate, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, and longitudinal velocity and does not require an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU).
