Oversteering is when the steering wheel is steered to a certain angle during driving and the
rear tires slip outward losing traction. When compared with under steering vehicles, the
controlling of the vehicle is difficult during cornering and the vehicle can spin due to rear wheel
moment when the rear tires lose traction and the vehicle speed increases.
ESP controls during under steering The ESP system recognizes the directional angle with the
steering wheel angle sensor and senses the slipping route that occurs reversely against the
vehicle cornering direction during understeering with the yaw rate sensor and the lateral sensor.
Then the ESP system applies the brake at the rear inner wheel to compensate the yaw moment
value. In this way, the vehicle does not lose its driving direction and the driver can steer the
vehicle as driver intends.
ESP controls during oversteering The ESP system recognizes the directional angle with the
steering wheel angle sensor and senses the slipping route that occurs towards the vehicle
cornering direction during oversteering with the yaw rate sensor and the lateral sensor. Then
the ESP system applies the brake at the front outer wheel to compensate the yaw moment
value. In this way, the vehicle does not lose its driving direction and the driver can steer the
vehicle as he or she intends.
