Suspension system with dynamic weight balancing control

1. A vehicle suspension control system comprising:

a plurality of sensors that determine ride height information associated with individual wheels of a vehicle and vehicle attitude information;

a plurality of adjustable dampers associated with respective ones of the individual wheels of the vehicle; and

a controller that generates a first damping intervention signal to change a damping force applied by a first selected adjustable damper responsive to detection of a trigger event associated with the ride height information and the vehicle attitude information,

wherein the first selected adjustable damper is associated with only one of a pair of rear wheels of the vehicle,

wherein the trigger event is associated with a turn of the vehicle,

wherein the first selected adjustable damper is associated with an inside rear wheel of the vehicle,

wherein the first damping intervention signal causes an increase in compression damping force of the first selected adjustable damper,

wherein the controller simultaneously provides a second damping intervention signal to change a damping force applied by a second selected adjustable damper responsive to detection of the trigger event,

wherein the second selected adjustable damper is associated with an outside front wheel of the vehicle, and

wherein the second damping intervention signal causes a decrease in rebound damping force of the second selected adjustable damper.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the controller determines an amount of the decrease in rebound damping force and an amount of the increase in compression damping force based on a lookup table correlating the ride height information and vehicle attitude information to respective force values of the adjustable dampers.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the lookup table further includes wheel angle, individual wheel velocity and wheel slip information.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the trigger event comprises detection of acceleration coming out of a turn.

5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the controller adjusts the lookup table over time based on learning associated with an evaluation of past performance of the controller in relation to determining the first and second damping intervention signals.

6. The system of claim 4 , wherein the vehicle attitude information comprises latitudinal acceleration of the vehicle, longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle, and yaw.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein changing the damping force applied by the first selected adjustable damper adjusts a suspension stiffness of a rear axle of the vehicle to provide increased rear axle grip during acceleration out of a turn.

8. A method of automatically applying damping force interventions for dynamic weight balancing in a suspension system of a vehicle, the method comprising:

receiving ride height information associated with respective individual wheels of the vehicle and vehicle attitude information from vehicle sensors;

determining, based on the ride height information and the vehicle attitude information, whether a trigger event has occurred; and

generating a first damping intervention signal to change a damping force applied by a first selected adjustable damper responsive to determining that the trigger event has occurred, the first selected damper being one of a plurality of adjustable dampers associated with respective ones of the individual wheels of the vehicle,

wherein the first selected adjustable damper is associated with only one of a pair of rear wheels of the vehicle,

wherein the trigger event is associated with a turn of the vehicle,

wherein the first selected adjustable damper is associated with an inside rear wheel of the vehicle,

wherein the first damping intervention signal causes an increase in compression damping force of the first selected adjustable damper,

wherein the method further comprises simultaneously providing a second damping intervention signal to change a damping force applied by a second selected adjustable damper responsive to detection of the trigger event,

wherein the second selected adjustable damper is associated with an outside front wheel of the vehicle, and

wherein the second damping intervention signal causes a decrease in rebound damping force of the second selected adjustable damper.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising determining an amount of the decrease in rebound damping force and an amount of the increase in compression damping force based on a lookup table correlating the ride height information and vehicle attitude information to respective force values of the adjustable dampers.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the lookup table further includes wheel angle, individual wheel velocity and wheel slip information.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the trigger event comprises detection of acceleration coming out of a turn.

12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising adjusting the lookup table over time based on learning associated with an evaluation of past performance of the controller in relation to determining the first and second damping intervention signals.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the vehicle attitude information comprises latitudinal acceleration of the vehicle, longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle, and yaw.

14. The method of claim 8 , wherein changing the damping force applied by the first selected adjustable damper adjusts a suspension stiffness of a rear axle of the vehicle to provide increased rear axle grip during acceleration out of a turn.
