Abstract
An exemplary method for detecting a lateral oscillation of a vehicle includes monitoring yaw rate data and lateral acceleration data of the vehicle, analyzing the yaw rate and lateral acceleration data to generate a yaw rate signal energy distribution and a lateral acceleration signal energy distribution, determining whether a series of conditions are satisfied; and if the conditions are satisfied, automatically controlling the actuator to reduce the lateral oscillation of the vehicle. In some examples, the series of conditions includes the detection of spikes in the yaw rate and lateral acceleration data at approximately the same frequency, a magnitude of the spikes exceeding a first threshold, and a phase shift between the yaw rate and lateral acceleration data exceeding a second threshold.
