Abstract
A stability control system includes a sensor for measuring the position of the suspension system. Alternatively, the sensor may directly detect the load on the suspension system. With this information, the system calculates a vehicle loading condition. A yaw rate model is selected based on the calculated vehicle loading condition. Preferably, a number of loading condition values are stored and a controller selects the best fitting loading condition value to serve as the yaw rate model.
