Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments are described with respect to implementing trailer sway detection strategies. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a lateral motion signal, determining if a number of peaks in the lateral motion signal satisfies a first criterion, determining if a cross-correlation of yaw acceleration and lateral acceleration satisfies a second criterion, disabling lane keeping assistance if the first criterion is satisfied, and determining if a trailer sway event is in progress if the first criterion and second criterion are satisfied.
